Michael G ece7ad05c4 Add GitHub issue templates for bugs, features, support and PRs (#755)
* Add GitHub issue templates for bugs, features, support and PRs

Issues are either a bug report, feature request or support request. Labels
are automaticaly added to the issues respectively: bug, enhancement, support.

The templates suggest using the Slack before opening an issue, but no longer
say it is a hard requirement. This might give a more inclusive impression to
people reporting who are not Slack users.

* List more information that should be provided for new issues

## Contributing
We greatly value the feedback and contributions of our users.
We keep a distinction between Bugs/Issues, New Features and Support Requests. We also try to minimise the noise in our GitHub Issues stream and prefer having a conversation on [SDKMAN Slack](https://slack.sdkman.io) before creating new issues, if you are not fully sure how to categorize your request. Simply sign up and join one of the following channels:
- User Issues can be raised in our [User Issues channel](https://sdkman.slack.com/app_redirect?channel=user-issues).
- New Features or Enhancements can be discussed in our [CLI Development channel](https://sdkman.slack.com/app_redirect?channel=cli-development).
The [GitHub Issue Tracker](https://github.com/sdkman/sdkman-cli/issues/new) provides templates for required informations.
**Unfortunately we might simply close any Github Issues that have not followed the requested template.**
### Pull Requests
Pull Requests are _always_ very welcome, but require a valid GitHub Issue as decribed above. The PR template is to be filled in before submission, ensuring that it is _linked back_ to the Github Issue number by replacing `#XXX` with the appropriate issue reference.
Each PR should also be accompanied by a passing test(s) proving it's validity (where feasible). The feasibility of the test will emerge in the initial discussions of the issue.
