build: add commit message linting to workflow

Run linting on the commit message of the first commit in a pull
request as part of our GitHub actions CI workflow. If linting fails
the pull request will be labelled as requiring a fix to the commit
message. The check itself will always pass so as to not concern
first time contributors.
