Hi everyone

Last easterbunny brought eggs and in one egg there was a life fairy.
She said her name is forgejo fairy and she wants to help the project
and community.

She is still quite young so please be gentle with her, ATM what she can do is
* scan pull requests for ones that are stale. More precissely
  + No activity for 7 days and
  + open and
  + not WIP and
  + CI passes and
  + mergable = no conflicts and
  + no open change requests and
  + activity since the last fairy reaction or no previous and

* she can read the patches, files patched and around 5000 files from FFmpeg git 
HEAD
  as well as all past comments in the PR
* she will try to review the changes and write a clean and concise comment
  also considering past comments so as no to add redudant information
* if EVERYTHING lines up she will approve the PR
  this will not on its own trigger any merge. Only if some human developer
  clicks the merge/rebase button or has previously set the PR to auto merge
  will that trigger a merge (this affects ATM at maximum 6 PRs)
* you can add her to the reviewer of a PR and that will decrease the
  "No activity" time to 1 day for that PR

Initially, i will set the "No activity time" to 56 days so she will only process
teh very stalest PRs and then slowly decrease it
Also it will be run by hand not by cron job first and manually supervised.
(that means i should be able to stop anything outrageous but i certainly
 will not recognize incorrect reviews)

My expectation is that >50% of the reviews will be usefull

As she grows she will gain more abilities

How to opt out? Get a human review before the 7-56 days

Examples:

Thx

Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give
it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For
even the very wise cannot see all ends. -- Gandalf
