add search for issues by regex pattern, like `good.*first.*[issue/bug]`

Some repositories don't have the label good-first-issue, but they have labels good-first-bug or good first issue. Therefore, the list of good first issues on the web is lacking. For example, https://github.com/ogham/exa/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Agood-first-bug. To query all possible results, we should query by regex pattern, like good.*first.*[issue/bug] instead of a hardcoded value: good-first-issue

[] will match a single character in the list. Something like good.*first.*(issue)|(bug)|(ticket) might work better?
Also I'd like to pick this up if allowed?

A cursory glance at the pygithub docs suggests that it doesnt like regexes for searching for issues, so maybe just expanding the list is the way to go, it's not ideal but since people manually add their projects here, they should choose one of the ones mentioned here

We should close this issue, seems there is a duplicate #394
