Live triage board for github/maintainermonth. Shows open issues and PRs with labels, review status, assignees, and relative ages. Calls the gh CLI at open time to fetch live data; a refresh action (also wired to a Refresh button in the UI) re-fetches and pushes a reload via SSE.

- Stats bar: open issues · open PRs · stale count · merged this week - Staleness left-border: transparent (fresh <3d), yellow (aging 3-7d), red (stale >7d) so problem items are visible instantly - Attention flags: 'Unassigned' badge on issues with no assignee, 'No reviewers' badge on PRs with no review requested — both floated to top of their column - Recently merged section: PRs merged in the last 14 days shown below the triage columns so you see what shipped - Staleness legend explaining the color coding Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Pull request overview
Adds a Copilot Canvas extension that renders a live “Maintainer Triage” board for github/maintainermonth, backed by a local HTTP server that queries GitHub via the gh CLI and pushes refresh events to the UI.
Changes:
- Introduces a new Copilot Canvas (
maintainer-triage) with a local server to render issues/PRs/merged PRs. - Implements staleness color-coding, sorting “needs attention” items to the top, and a stats bar + merged section.
- Adds refresh flows via an iframe button (
/api/refresh) and a canvas action (refresh).
