teh MAINTAINERS file is not using forgejo user names
it also doesnt use precisse regex expressions

also it would defeat the intend
the intend is to reduce friction. If i open a PR that fixes a security
issue and mark it as auto merge. A month later i realize it has been forgotten
noone reviewed, noone approved and on top i cant even click "merge" i need to
manually
1. fetch 2 remote branches
2. rebase one
3. run tests locally
4. push 2 branches in the right order

Iam not in MAINTAINERs for the whole codebase

also I think if the whole team ignores a patch that is marked as auto-merge
for a week. the action of it going in cant really be a surprise for anyone ;)

if its not marked as auto merge than the script approving it wont merge it

but as said, i intend to be cautious with this at first and try it slowly.

thx
