Subject: [PATCH] feat: create issue templates for bug reports and feature
 requests

Add GitHub issue templates using YAML form syntax:
- bug_report.yml: structured bug report with version, OS, reproduction steps
- feature_request.yml: feature request with motivation and alternatives
- config.yml: enable blank issues and link to discussions

Closes #523
