Description
closing an issue also posts the whole OP to matrix, which seems extreme, like #198.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the GitHub issue closure notification described here, using the linked Element issue #19888 as context, and trace how the bridge posts the event to Matrix. Done means a closed issue notification states the issue state change and no longer includes the entire original post.
