In addition to the user-facing suggestions with potential duplicates,
the bot will now also have a separate collapsible block in the same
comment that's meant more for the triagers. This block will list the
duplicates we're less sure about as well as recently closed issues that
seem related to the issue at hand.
This commit updates the bot to V3 for the tracking-effectiveness
purposes and fixes some leftovers from the previous dupe bot change
(activating the bot for issues with no type).
It also improves the reliability of the script a bit, wrapping some
calls to the GitHub API into retries.

The case of false negatives (“Missed opportunities”) was not considered
when the bot versioning was added. Now we're also automatically
attributing the false negatives to the bot version that made them.

Turns out you can't query the duplicate issue for the id of the
original/canonical issue, even though GitHub UI displays “Closed as
duplicate of <original issue id>”. Oh well. For the bot performance
tracking all that matters is whether any of its suggestions were the
actual originals, so we're working around the API limitation by querying
the suggested issues instead.
Release Notes:

Obviously™, we add the bot-commented issues onto the tracking board at
the time of the issues getting closed, which is very much not the same
time as when the bot commented. We could very well be adding the issue
with a v1 bot comment to the board when v2 is already deployed. This
commit stops messing up those stats.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Add a script that classifies open and closed issues that the duplicate
bot commented (or not commented) on and puts them into the appropriate
columns of the dedicated github project board. Add a workflow that calls
that script for every closed issue and also on a schedule (that's for
the open ones).
If you're reading this some time way later and there's no bot running
around the repository leaving comments like “This issue appears to be a
duplicate of...”, you can delete these files.
