… helpers
Add new exported functions to src/github.ts that wrap
`gh issue edit --add-assignee` with the existing retry/backoff
infrastructure:
- assignGithubIssueAsync: async variant with rate-limit retry/backoff
(configurable retries, default 3). Returns { ok, error? } without
throwing on failure.
- assignGithubIssue: sync variant using runGhDetailed. Returns
{ ok, error? } without throwing on failure.
- AssignGithubIssueResult interface exported for consumers.
Includes 11 unit tests covering success, failure, retry on rate-limit/403,
max retry exhaustion, and command construction verification.
