Extend stale PR closure period to 365 days
Updated the days before closing stale PRs from 180 to 365. Due to internal priorities we need to allow more time for PR reviews.

Based on my reading, we need to increase `days-before-close` to ensure that any PR marked with the `stale` label currently benefits from the extension.

Once we are caught up on the backlog, we can revisit this setting.

name: Stale
# **What it does**: Close pull requests after no updates for 180 days.
# **Why we have it**: This repository gets a lot of PRs, and the maintainers team is small.
# This helps reduce the open PRs to ones that are most desired by the community.
# **Who does it impact**: Contributors and maintainers of github/gitignore.
