Ping in a channel when a major project is submitted

Write a slackbot that integrates with Conditional that pings in #current-eboard when someone submits a project for our review. That way the onus is on eboard to reach out in DMs, but we all actually get notified when someone is ready to submit. Couple this with #48, and we'd have a much more robust process for creating Major Project proposals that are better for everyone.

I would recommend either posting to #major-projects, or a new eboard-only channel specifically for major project notifications. Pinging #current-eboard would pollute it.

Best practice is likely making the CHANNEL_ID a config variable so if we need to change it later it doesn't require a commit

Please don't use a slack bot for this, use a webhook or a workflow!
