Proof of concept rewrite of ClueBot NG's bot component (https://github.com/cluebotng/bot).
- Maintain revert outcome; specifically the pre-filtering that happens before core scoring
- Improve resource usage; specifically MySQL connection pooling, ideally removing the pre-fork model
- Improve debugging; expose metrics for health, which currently are calculated from scraping logs
- Ease development; single portable binary with only external service dependencies
- Improve throughput/missed edits; or at least be able to explain them better [T343952]
