Prompt to change Component upon ticket creation

Description

It's increasingly common for ticket reporters to leave the Component at the default value, this isn't always an issue, but it causes tickets to not get posted to their Slack channels and can cause reports to miss the "Please report this on this other bug tracker" notice.

For example, see the attached image.

Well, I missed changing the Component back to General for the screenshot, but you get the idea :)

An alternative may be to also check if the suggested component has an alternative bug tracker location, and to include that in the image, or a checkbox [ ] No, I'm not reporting an issue in <Trac> before submitting as the default component?

I'm imagining that we'd simply pull all words from the Component dropdown, and if one of those words are mentioned in the title/description.

On Meta, There are some words that we'd need to exclude Site, Plugin(s), for, the.. Perhaps remove those, but also check explicitly for the entire Phrase "Five for the Future" would match but "for the" wouldn't.

This ticket was mentioned in Slack in #core by dd32. View the logs.

The prompt looks great to me. Perhaps the confirmation checkbox is a bit too much for now?

In 11537:

Trac: Suggest the correct component when a reporter leaves it as 'General'.

This only matches based on words contained within the Component labels, it would be nice to extend this so that we can have other matching words.

See #6078.
