Pull request overview
This PR adds automation and documentation to generate a predefined set of GitHub issues for the ClassCrawler teaching scaffold, including a workflow-dispatch GitHub Action plus local Bash/Python helpers and supporting docs.
Changes:

Create Project Issues) intended to create issues via GitHub Actions. - Added local scripts (
create_issues.sh,create_issues.py,create_single_issue.sh) and a Wave 1 JSON template. - Added multiple docs pages describing how to run the workflow/scripts and manually create issues.
