Description

When one of the GH PR is in merge queue/cannot be edited, stack-pr will crash with a stack trace. Ideally this should be avoided - it could e.g. skip updating it's description instead of crashing with a stack trace.

Research direction

Reproduce the crash while one stacked GitHub PR is in the merge queue or cannot be edited, then trace the stack trace to the update path. Done means stack-pr completes without crashing and skips updating that PR's description when GitHub refuses the edit.
