Description

Using the functionality in https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-autolink/pull/85 the GitHub plugin should register autolinks for GitHub URLs.

  1. E.g. https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-jira/pull/453 should be rewritten to [pr-mattermost/mattermost-plugin-jira#453](https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-jira/pull/453)
  2. E.g. https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-jira/issues/149 should be rewritten to [issue-mattermost/mattermost-plugin-jira#149](https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-jira/issues/149)

An example implantation of registering autolinks is https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-jira/pull/453.
