Close and reopen epic via quick action
Problem and proposal
- For GitLab to use this, we need everyone (all GitLabbers that is) to be able to close and open/reopen epics. But we don't everyone deleting them. So we have to create the ability to open/reopen and close.
- This issue is the first step. We chose to use a quick action as a first step to minimize scope in this small iteration (Summit). In future iterations, we will add other standard features like closing via buttons in the UI. See &145 (closed).
Requirements
- Reporter+ role in the group can close an epic.
- Reporter + role in the group can reopen an epic.
- Epic view of a closed epic. Probably an open badge and a closed badge.

Tabs on the epics list to show open versus closed.https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/7014 API updates to expose the epic states and changing the epic states of open vs closed.- When this feature is first implemented, epics should be open by default. (Not sure if a DB migration is necessary to support this.)
