Gitlab allows projects to define templates for filing issues [1].
Libvirt didn't have them yet. We can use them to encourage users to
file better bug reports and feature requests.
You can test-drive the proposed templates in my test repo:

Any suggestions on how to improve them further are very welcome.
They look good. Couple of suggestions:
- in the bug-qemu template: either add a 'host OS' or a 'host kernel'
field in the 'versions and environment' section. Having to know the
kernel version the user is rocking to determine the cause of a QEMU bug
is not uncommon. Most of the cases knowing the host OS suffices to
get the kernel version, so any of those works;
- for all templates: if the bug happens in an non-x86 arch we want to know
about it. I'd say that a text in the "Versions and environment" section
with something akin of:
"If the bug happens in an architecture other than x86_64, please inform it
below"
will not annoy x86_64 users while also contemplating that other archs are
also supported.
Thanks,
