- `github_owner` is now required, was previously optional by mistake
- `github_context` now has a default of `users` restoring previously changed default behavior
- Fixes a bug where iterating over issues may have not worked due to a syntax error
- Adds `mypy` type checking
- Fixes some typing errors around default values when no parameter is passed (changes strings from `None` to an empty string to better represent the type across the whole app.)
