Information

Currently, there's several places where we employ a list to conditionally execute certain portions of certain GitHub Actions:

• Issue Comment Created Triage
• Issue Triage
• Pull Request Project Automation
• CHANGELOG Checks
• Check Maintainer Edit Permissions
• NeedsTriageLabeler
• Dependency Checks

Given that this list is in multiple places, it's easy for it to become stale/out of date, or for the list to be updated in one place, but not the others. This PR introduces a new GitHub Actions Secret called MAINTAINER_LIST to help centralize the list, managed by Terraform so that it's significantly easier to be updated.

Once this PR is merged, the associated Actions will need to be updated in a separate PR (#23636). The syntax will be as follows, for example:

Previously:

      if: github.event.action == 'opened' && !contains(fromJSON('["anGie44", "bflad", "breathingdust", "DrFaust92", "ewbankkit", "gdavison", "justinretzolk", "maryelizbeth", "YakDriver", "zhelding", "johnsonaj"]'), github.actor)

After this PR:

      if: github.event.action == 'opened' && !contains( secrets.MAINTAINER_LIST, github.actor)
