#2933: Provide shortcode for linking to unanswered tickets for a component

 On the components page ([https://make.wordpress.org/core/components/]),
 there is a column stating the number of unanswered trac tickets belonging
 to each component linking to a trac query for said tickets. The link is a
 query by ticket number that is cached.

 In writing agendas for bug and ticket scrubs, this list of tickets can
 become inaccurate between the time the agenda goes out and the time the
 scrub happens.

 It would be great if there was a shortcode that could be used in posts on
 Make blogs that would automatically refresh itself in the same way the
 components page does.

 Example:
 {{{
 [unanswered-tickets component="media"]
 }}}

 It would also be great if this could include tickets with a focus.
 Multisite, for example, has a component and a focus in trac.

 Some other potential examples (which may or may not be possible to
 generate and may Need separate tickets).

 Unanswered tickets with a specific focus, component independant:
 {{{
 [unanswered-tickets focus="multisite"]
 }}}

 Unanswered tickets not in a component, but with a specific focus:
 {{{
 [unanswered-tickets component="!multisite" focus="multisite"]
 }}}

 More than happy to supply a patch for this if it would be
 accepted/blessed. Making this ticket as a brain dump as a reminder to
 circle back.
