What does this MR do and why?

Building on the IssueHelper implementation in !3985 (merged), as part of Internal release pipeline: Create issue on Dedi... (gitlab-com/gl-infra/delivery#20161 - closed)

InternalRelease::DedicatedIssue is similar to the other classes that create Issues, such as the Security::CommsTaskIssue.

  • It creates a confidential issue in the gitlab-dedicated tracker
  • Information includes:
    • The version string of the internal release
    • The links to the release task issue
    • Planned release date (due date of the task issue)
    • Release managers
  • Assigns to: EA managers @o-lluch @denhams
  • Labels:
    • Severity (severity1)
    • ~"team::Environment Automation"

I've left the "Dedicated group tasks" to be TBD. Feel free to let me know if there are any suitable runbooks/handbooks/docs and/or any steps to add in there. For example, the comms task issue gets created with a template with a pre-filled checklist here.
