Assign issues to issue commenters

Maintaining an open source project often involves managing contributions from the community, and using labels like "help wanted" or "good first issue" indicates issues ready for contribution. However, when multiple contributors express interest in the same issue, it can be challenging to designate one without excluding others or needing repetitive follow-ups. A new feature now allows maintainers to directly assign read-only contributors to issues they have commented on, providing them with a notification of their assignment. If a contributor cannot undertake the task, they can easily unassign themselves. This feature aims to streamline the process of assigning contributors quickly and foster a more inclusive open source community, enhancing collaboration and productivity on platforms like GitHub.
