There's no perfect solution, but IMHO auto-closing with a friendly
comment is less bad than just having the PR ignored forever because
no developers look at submissions in the readonly mirror.

Note the GNOME auto-closer provides a comment telling the user that the
primary repo is on gitlab and pointing them to where it is. Logging
into gitlab is simple because it can do SSO with the GitHub identity

  https://github.com/GNOME/glib/pull/33#issuecomment-650457175

We do much the same in libvirt

  https://github.com/libvirt/libvirt-python/pull/4#issuecomment-662443409

FWIW, there's no need to write a bot to achieve this - there's a
a github action:

  https://github.com/apps/repo-lockdown

you can simply enable for your repos by adding a file:

  https://github.com/libvirt/libvirt-python/blob/master/.github/workflows/lockdown.yml
