... as soon as Yetus picks up something that it thinks is a github PR,
it switches to github mode and there is no mechanism for it to go back.

Completely. But it's really two separate bugs:
* the JIRA plugin's github bridge that tries to detect if it is a JIRA
w/a link to github probably needs to get it's regex strengthened a bit.
* if the github plugin detects it isn't really a github PR it should
really have a way to send it back to JIRA if the bridge collapses.
Relatedly, it's been requested that the bridge should detect which one
is "newer" and use that, but that's *really* hard to do efficiently without
making a ton of queries all over the place.
