Check for Nearby Chapters

[CrisNevares]

This PR adds automation via a GitHub Action that will check for nearby chapters when an issue using the 'Cloud Native Community Group (CNCG) Chapter Request' template is created. If a nearby chapter is found, a comment is added by the Action linking to the existing chapter(s).

Hi @CrisNevares

OCG provides a way of making this sort of queries directly (although it's not exposed in the UI at the moment).

You can do something like this:

curl --get 'https://ocgroups.dev/explore/groups/search' \
  --header 'CloudFront-Viewer-Latitude: 40.7128' \
  --header 'CloudFront-Viewer-Longitude: -74.0060' \
  --data-urlencode 'distance=100000' \
  --data-urlencode 'sort_by=distance' \
  --data-urlencode 'limit=10'

This should simplify things on your end a bit, and it'll make the process lighter on our side as well, as you won't need to pull all groups every time (it'll be heavier over time as the list grows) 🙂

(we'll update those headers names eventually, but it should work for now :)

Thank you for the feedback @tegioz! I'm aiming to incorporate the feedback before the end of the week.

@tegioz Feedback addressed! Ready for your review

Hi @CrisNevares

I'd also recommend applying the group category filter on the OCG API query, instead of filtering locally after fetching all results. As it is, you could receive a first page with lots of results to discard, leaving out valid ones. And the query is heavier than needed.

group_category[0]=regional

The rest looks good to me 🙂

@tegioz Update made to apply the regional filter on the initial query

Looks good to me @CrisNevares 👍
