Stop creating duplicate consent issues when the issues index goes stale

GitHub's repository issues endpoint occasionally serves stale empty
responses (observed across both `state=all` and per-state queries, with
and without cache-busting). When the lookup returned nothing the bot
treated it as "no existing issue" and created a new duplicate on every
10-minute cron tick — chrisns/infra had six identical consent issues
opened over a few hours, and similar fan-out elsewhere.

Union the lookup across the search API and per-state listForRepo calls
so a stale read from any single source doesn't fool us, and add a
post-create dedup pass that deterministically keeps the lowest-numbered
open issue (so concurrent worker runs converge on the same survivor).
