Add TheRespectPanda Bot workflow

[alganet]

Includes a basic bot workflow that just answers "pong" to ping requests.

This is the minimum feature that exercises token access, non recursive comments (answering to its own pong) and so on.

This workflow has been tested in a private testing repo:

https://github.com/Respect/GitHubTests/issues/2 (visible to Respect org members)

Feel free to interact with the bot there.

Pull request overview

Adds a GitHub Actions workflow implementing the initial version of the TheRespectPanda bot, responding with “pong” to a “@TheRespectPanda ping” issue/PR comment, using a response file as a control mechanism.

Changes:

• Introduces a new issue_comment-triggered workflow for responding to bot commands.
• Writes a computed response to .TheRespectPanda_response.md and posts it as a comment when non-empty.

This is great!

What are the privileges of this token? We have a problem now with the auto update merge requests because GitHub won't trigger two workflows in a row (to avoid recursion). If we pass the Panda's token to some workflows we solve that issue

[alganet]

@henriquemoody I made the token only with Issues (read and write) and Pull Requests (read and write).

It's setup as an org-level secret, so you can re-issue it with more permissions and update it if you need to.
