Fix stale action to work repository-wide #3600

@Okabe-Junya

Description

@Okabe-Junya

The stale action is currently non-functional due to a configuration conflict:

  • only-labels: 'lang/es' requires items to have this label
  • exempt-issue-labels: 'maintainers, lang/es' exempts items with this label

This results in all issues/PRs being skipped.

Background

  • The action was originally designed for Spanish localization only (PR feat: stale issues and PR with not activity #1612)
  • However, having repository-wide stale management would help keep issues and PRs actively maintained
  • The current conflicting configuration should be fixed regardless of scope

Proposal

Expand the stale action to cover all issues and PRs by removing the only-labels restriction.

Open Questions

  • Which labels should be exempt from stale processing?
  • Should localization branches have separate stale policies?
