Move to GitLab.com

In light of this, I would like us to seriously consider self-hosting a Gogs or GitLab instance. We're not eating our own dog food and setting a rather bad example in regards to self-hosting by using GitHub for issues and pull requests.
If it is agreed upon that this is the way to go, I can help to move all of the issues to the new platform, keeping interlinking intact.
