What?
Bumped version of the outdated npm module "github" (which was renamed to "@octokit/rest") to fix security vulnerabilities.
The newer version of the npm module had a lot of braking changes, so I had to update our core as well (the first commit).
Also refactored the related JS file to use async/await instead of callbacks (the second commit).
