[llvm] Remove fork handling from release issue workflow (PR #79310)

[Nikita Popov via llvm-commits]

https://github.com/nikic created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/79310

This is currently broken, because the check is performed on the wrong repository. repo here is llvm/llvm-project, which is not a fork (so this will always trigger), then we'll push a new branch to llvmbot/llvm-project, and then again set the wrong owner, so we'll look for the branch in llvm/llvm-project rather than llvmbot/llvm-project.

Rather than fixing this, I'm removing the code entirely, as it shouldn't be needed anymore (llvmbot/llvm-project is a fork of llvm/llvm-project).

This will hopefully fix the failure from https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/79253#issuecomment-1908353688.

This is currently broken, because the check is performed on the

a fork (so this will always trigger), then we'll push a new branch
to llvmbot/llvm-project, and then again set the wrong owner, so
we'll look for the branch in llvm/llvm-project.

shouldn't be needed anymore (llvmbot/llvm-project is a fork of
llvm/llvm-project).
