I expect the people who will file infra bugs to be developers or those of us
who deal with infrastructure. Most people have a bugzilla account anyway
because that's where we file upstream bugs. The dependency on the primary
sponsor already exists. It makes more sense to keep all the bugs, code and
infra, in one place.

The only other platform I can think of using is Github, which does not let us
have private bugs (at least not easily). Infrastructure bugs should have an
option for private bugs in case we want to discuss a security issue.
