Problem/Motivation
This is a follow-up issue to few Slack discussions with Hestenet and the AI Initiative and will work as a follow up of #3559846.
We have seen one more issue when using this in the AI Initiative that makes it hard to work in a similar manner to current drupal.org and that is that you can't assign yourself to an issue if you are not a maintainer. Or unassign yourself.
So we should have something similar to a slash command to be able to assign yourself or unassign yourself.
Remaining tasks
Decide the best solution and implement it.

Comment #2
mradcliffeIn the current core work flow, we highly encourage people to "assign" by writing a comment about what we are attending to work on rather than using the Assigned drop down list unless they are a subsystem maintainer or core committer.
I think we should still encourage this behavior in GitLab, but we do have the unique opportunity to use the reviewer/request reviewer for targeted reviews on merge requests.
