Provide a user-updown feature voting page on the repo

[pp-mo]

Want something that allows per-user voting on issues, to provide shared priority management

@pp-mo Can we now close this issue?

We seem to be using the votable feature now

Is there a plan to advertise this to the user community? Reading and voting on issues could be an easy first step for those who are not yet involved in the development side of things.

I have just been through and voted for my favourites 😁.

@pp-mo We should also add a link in the docs and the README.md that allows users to easily get to the actual Iris Issue Voting page.

Probably votable issues should disappear from the voting page when they are either closed or the Votable Feature label is removed?

Just reviewing this : let's leave this in place till we address some of the excellent points raised above ...

A nice approach here https://executablebooks.org/en/latest/feature-vote.html. This uses github for voting but has the ability to view the results on sphinx docs (datatable used for sorting), which I assume uses the git API to update the table daily.

Note that the above link cover votable issues for the org not just one project too.

#4617 is now merged. We have the ability to vote using 👍 on issue headers. We do not have the ability to down vote though but I think this is acceptable.
