Create a github CI bot to sync up all the repos #155

I think I have caught most of the projects that use the copier template.

This will not work right now as it requires a user PAT and I can't add org tokens to scipp.

We can create a scipp bot account on github so we can use it's PAT to make sure it is clear that the PR was created by an automated action and not one of our's personal token. (I am fine just using my account too)

Another thing to keep in mind is that this will generate a bunch of merge conflicts (copier stores them as .rej files) all around as it seems like some of the projects haven't been kept in sync with the template.

I have updated to create the action as part of the downstream package.

The quickest way to test this out would be to merge this PR in and I can try on one of the packages.

We would still need to run a manual updates for all the packages to bring the up to date with the current template.
