Update feature proposal template with "Intended users"

SV requested to merge patch-48 into master

What does this MR do?

Changes the "Target audience" section of the Feature Proposal issue template to "Intended users" and expands the section to include more general groups of users for which we might not have relevant personas. This change reflects an action item from the UX and Product Marketing meeting on Personas. Reasoning for the changes:

  1. Existing personas are not up to date and don't cover all of our users
  2. Requiring a persona field to open a feature proposal can be a blocker when there isn't a relevant persona
  3. Having the option to leave the field defined by the creator, empty, or "unknown" is less prescriptive and enables exploration during product discovery

This MR also replaces the list of personas links and labels with a single link to the personas page because:

  1. The list of links made the template unnecessarily long
  2. This template exists in multiple projects, and any time individual personas and personas links change, the templates become obsolete

What are the relevant issue numbers?

Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria?
