GitHub Action to auto-add from many repos

[jwfuller]

GitHub Project Workflow tools allow items from repositories to be automatically added to a Project. We would like to be able to automatically add items from many repos, both inside our Org and outside our Org. DUE team manages 5+ repos in our organization and several in a NASA org

On our current GH Plan, you are allowed one (1) auto-add workflow per project.

I think we can replicate this with GH Actions. For repos in our org, add an Action to each repo that pushes Issues to the project. For external repos, add an Action to a meta-repo that runs on cron to find new Issues and pull them in

• Pull in Issues from a list of repositories in our organization
• Pull in Issues from a list of repositories outside our organization

We could use this on US AON project.
