Add standardized issue templates for feature requests and bug reports #297

Thanks for the thought but that I'm not too interested in for this repository. The verbosity adds more burden than it helps, especially when people feed this templates to LLMs to fill like some contributors do. It's seemingly more detailed but actually just more info to ignore. Templates generally nudge people toward having to come up with justification they don't need to give me. What's most valuable to me is generally people staying available to have a short exchange in the occasional cases more info is needed and everyone being understanding and patient |

Thanks for the feedback, Nathan. I understand the concern about making issues too structured and adding unnecessary overhead for contributors. |

Description
I would like to propose adding structured issue templates for Bug Reports and Feature Requests to make issues easier to understand, triage, and maintain.
Currently, issues have different formats depending on the reporter. A consistent template could help contributors provide the necessary information upfront and make discussions more efficient.
This is only a proposal for discussion before implementation.

Current situation
Some recent issues already contain useful information, but the structure differs.
Example bug report sections:
Example feature request sections:
These formats work well, but having a standard template would make future issues more consistent.
