GitHub issues: rename "beginner-friendly" label to "good first issue"

GitHub issues: rename "beginner-friendly" label to "good first issue"

[mb21]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1020 bytes --]

GitHub prompted me with "Now, GitHub will help potential first-time 
contributors discover issues labeled with help wanted 
<https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22help+wanted%22>
 or good first issue 
<https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22>
".

Does anyone know what exactly they mean?

Should we rename pandoc's "beginner-friendly" label to "good first issue"?

Checking a few repos which have these labels shows that GitHub now shows
an extra info box intended to motivate users to contribute. Examples:

- https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/labels/good%20first%20issue
- https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/labels/good%20first%20issue
