build: increase API requests for stale action
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The second attempt at getting the auto closing of issues & PRs to work
as expected without hitting a maximum operations allowed error we've
been seeing.

Recently discovered that the mentioned error is actually self imposed
by the stale action itself. It keeps track of how many outgoing GitHub
API requests it performs, and if that count exceeds the configured
`operations-per-run` option, it exits to avoid hitting API rate limits.

Default `operations-per-run` value is set to `30`.

That's a very low limit and we're not at all concerned hitting that
rate limit as of now, so we're bumping `operations-per-run` to `500`
with these changes.
