Remove stale bot

“Stale Issue Bots” are the scourge of GitHub. A disease that has affected so many projects I use or contribute to.

It blows my mind that some people have made it their life’s work to go around adding these bots to as many repos as possible. Said people seem to like looking at blank issues sections, “out of sight out of mind” for unresolved issues. Let’s sweep it under the carpet and pretending it doesn't exist.

But high percentage of issues are open because they haven't been dealt with!
