Repeated calls to get Issues

[vigneshsankariyer1234567890]

Describe the bug
There are many repeated calls to get Issues from GitHub, as seen in the screenshot. This made sense for CATcher, as it was an application which required real-time data. However, WATcher does not need to refresh the issues every 5 seconds, and users can afford to just view non-updated data.

This makes sense as we want to reduce the number of calls.

To Reproduce
Login to WATcher and open network. Issues are polled every 5 seconds using IssueService::startPollIssues.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: MacOS Monterey
• Browser Chrome

Hi! For this, do we want to just disable the issue polling entirely or reduce the latency to something much longer (maybe 5 minutes)?

This could be a possible solution, but by the nature of WATcher, it might be better to replace the polling with a manual refresh. (perhaps the a sync button).
