Document First-time-issue and Hackathon/Hacktoberfest labels (PowerShell#8575)
Seems like the convention is to have a `First-Time-Issue` to help first time contributors find easy issues they can work on to start learning about the project and make their first contribution. Label is created, this PR adds documentation. The `Hackathon`/`Hacktoberfest` label (changes depending on time of year) wasn't documented previously and added to issue management doc. Fix PowerShell#8562
