Pull Request Templates Scoped to Directory

[jmhwang7]

The issue

Repos can have multiple pull request templates. Monorepos can contain different services that might have different considerations that should be thought through when making a change. There is no way for the user when going through the Github UI to specify which pull request template they would like to use OR know which pull request template should be used when.

The idea

Scoping a pull request template to a directory would enable different teams to decide what they consider important when making a change to code they own. This would (hopefully) result in better changes with less bugs and more consistency.

It could work similarly to the CODEOWNERS file where you specify which team owns which part of the repo, so you could have the same idea and either instead of the team you specify the template that should be used when opening the PR or just associate a PR template for each team.

This would be useful especially in big monorepos
