Prepopulate issue title from template file

Description

We cannot use the slash command /title in a template, because the title input is required to submit the new issue and the slash command is interpreted after the submission. Sometimes in templates, it could be usefull to generate a title or a part of it.

Proposal

2 propositions :

  • when selecting a template, it can be parsed to search for a /title and apply it
  • the form validation need to parse the description and search for a /title (not empty) and allow the form submission
