Resolve "Create a new Task w/ Title"

Natalia Tepluhina requested to merge 334812-create-a-new-task-w-title into master

What does this MR do and why?

This MR implements the first MVP for creating a work item (previously defined as a "Task") from the issue description todo-checkboxes. The current implementation is purely frontend and it doesn't rely on any real mutation. Instead, we're modifying the DOM of issue description and "creating" a new item with the local createWorkItem mutation.

Please find the designs for the current iteration on Figma. At this point, we do not implement a dropdown with work item types, this will be done on the next step.
