Allow external autolinks in titles of pull requests

[wolfpeyton]

External autolinks can be active in pull request descriptions and comments, but not titles. It would be very nice if links were automatically substituted in titles as well.

Thank you for your consideration.

Though, it seems Github doesn't autolink anything in the PR title, including other PRs or issues.

In my team, we prefix all our pull requests with the corresponding Jira issue.
It would be really nice to have direct access to the Jira issue from the PR title without looking for the description, the commit messages or copy-pasting the Jira issue key.
Cheers! 😉

We migrated two years ago from Bitbucket to GitHub. Bitbucket supported this out-of-the-box and it's a feature I still greatly miss.

I have a feeling this would take 10 minutes to implement, but I guess no one at GH thinks it's important enough.

This is the only "feature" we're missing from Bitbucket.
