Daniel Lenski e36a257323 Modify PR template to encourage contribution of automated tests
Many recent PRs offer up shell scripts or example queries in the testing
section, when these could be easily and usefully be converted to automated
tests based on MTR.  (https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/1888 and
https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/1940 are good examples of this.)

This modifies the PR template to more strongly encourage the contribution of
automated tests.

Description

TODO: fill description here

How can this PR be tested?

TODO: modify the automated test suite to verify that the PR causes MariaDB to behave as intended. Consult the documentation on "Writing good test cases". In many cases, this will be as simple as modifying one .test and one .result file in the mysql-test/ subdirectory. Without automated tests, future regressions in the expected behavior can't be automatically detected and verified.

If the changes are not amenable to automated testing, please explain why not and carefully describe how to test manually.
