A PR where the author went AWOL (or worse) do clutter, and there is
little harm in closing these with an appropriate tag - as long as the
branch (pull/<PR number>/head) is not removed, no data/code is lost.

I'd say 6 or 9 months is probably a sufficient period of inactivity to
declare a PR abandoned,
