PR template

DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Pull request template.

• Simple template to help facilitate well documented PRs
• Special additions are made after the comment section to help bring in ufs-community:ufs/dev PRs.

NOTES: If there are more or less items in the template that people would like, please let me know.

@scrasmussen I think that it would be a good idea to have something like the "Changes" section of the UW PR template: (see, e.g. ufs-community/ufs-weather-model#2655). In particular, this would be a good spot to put in things like expected RT result changes, input data changes, and changes to the software stack needed (pretty darn rare, though).

Thanks for the input! I'll add those things

@scrasmussen Thanks for creating this template.
Should we put a line for associated CCPP SCM and CCPP framework PRs? Maybe above the optional ufs/dev section?

@scrasmussen This is shaping up nice with everyones suggestions.
Should we include a line about 'including sufficient documentation updates', as necessary?
