Add the ability to consider reactions

[gorzelinski]

Description:
As mentioned in #861 (comment), in some projects it’s useful to track reactions as activity. This PR adds such an option (disabled by default). We tested it on our primary and supporting repositories, and it works as expected.

Related issue:
#861

Check list:

• Mark if documentation changes are required.
• Mark if tests were added or updated to cover the changes.

Hello @gorzelinski , we started to review the PR, but can you please meanwhile fix the failed checks of the PR?

[gorzelinski]

Hey @dsame, sure, I'll look into it ASAP.

[gorzelinski]

Should I do something more? As I see, the checks are passing now.

Hey @nitrocode, do we need additional reviews? Sorry for bothering you, but avoiding merge conflicts would be great.

Hi @gorzelinski , I do not manage this repo. I was just trying to get this reviewed so we can eventually get it merged.

I can see from past merges that each merge seemed to require at least 2 approvals before merging

@nitrocode Oh, I didn't know. Thanks for the info anyway.
So maybe I'll forward it to @dsame.
