Add links back to bugs.python.org

When the bpo-\d+ pattern is picked up in a comment we should rewrite it to be linked to bugs.python.org appropriately. And if the link is detected in the title then a link should be added as a comment on the PR.

Sign me up for this :)

And FYI we have a PSF account on Heroku so I would just write any bot to be hosted there to make writing this easier. (I also wonder if there isn't a bot somewhere that does this already? Quite possibly not but a quick Google search wouldn't hurt.)

Roger that.

Is there currently any art on which this effort could be based or does it need to be engineered from scratch?

Until we have a service that can re-write the source, I've developed this greasemonkey script that will inject links:

// ==UserScript==
// @name Link bugs.python.org
// @include https://github.com/python/*
// @require https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.1.1/jquery.min.js
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==

$(".comment-body").html(
    function () {
       return $(this).html().replace(/(bpo-(\d+))/, '<a href="https://bugs.python.org/issue$2">$1</a>');
    }
);

@jaraco

@jaraco it doesn't need to be from scratch, it just needs to be easily deployed and maintained.

I should also mention that there's a possibility of making this a status check where the "Details" link would point to the issue itself (it's an idea I have in the back of my head that I'm still thinking through).

Bedevere is now doing this indirectly through a status check for issue numbers.
