Chandler Carruth 824d7e3c83 Create a GitHub action to automatically handle dependent PRs (#7101)
This should detect when a PR has a dependency of another open PR and add
a comment and label describing it. The comment will even do a
best-effort to compute the best starting commit for review.

Whenever PRs are closed, it will also scan the open depnedent PRs and
try to either remove the PRs in the comment or if it reaches zero the
label.

It works to update a single comment on a PR rather than adding more
comments.

# - Ensures the dependency direction reflects the creation sequence.
# - Handles minor fixes or differences by only requiring overlap, not
# strict subset inclusion.
# - Avoids circular dependencies via the sequence check.
