[meta] private-etc rework #6400
Description
Currently #5610 is used for the discussion of the new private-etc groups and
associated refactoring.
Though unlike issues, when referencing a discussion a timeline event for the
reference is not created, so links between discussions and issues/PRs/commits
have to be created manually in comments (see
https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/2971).
So create this new issue to use as the main issue to be referenced in this case
for the sake of automatic links.
