Minor doc comment wording fix, no behavior change.

Simulated author profile for this demo: a level-1 contributor (org policy requires level 5+ for auto-approve eligibility in general), but explicitly whitelisted -- e.g. a bot account or a trusted long-time external contributor the org has manually cleared.

Auto-approve policy evaluation

Stage	Result
Eligibility (min_author_level: 5, author level: 1, whitelisted: yes)	✅ pass via whitelist
LLM classification (refactor-only, confidence 9)	✅ pass
Risk score vs. threshold	✅ low
Static ruleset gate	✅ no blocking rulesets tripped

Verdict: AUTO-APPROVED. The whitelist is an explicit, org-configured override of the level gate -- it exists so a known-trusted author (a service account, a long-standing external maintainer) isn't needlessly held up by a level requirement aimed at unknown/new contributors. Contrast with author-below-min-level-blocked: same shape of gate, opposite outcome, because this author is explicitly trusted.

Auto-approve policy verdict: APPROVED. Simulated author is below min_author_level but explicitly whitelisted -- the whitelist bypasses the level gate.
