Comment Rollup GitHub Action

This action "rolls up" all comments on an issue or discussion into the issue body under a details tag. It will update the rollup every time a comment is added, edited, or deleted. It can also create a Word document if you'd like.

Why would you ever want to do this? For ease of copying all the comments, either as Markdown or as rich text.

It is based on https://github.com/actions/typescript-action.

• label - A label to require on issues before rolling up comments (optional)
• link_to_doc - Whether to link to a Word document with the rollup (optional)
