feat(pr-reviewer): fail closed on unresolved authors
User description
Summary\n- Fail closed when REVIEW_AUTHORS is configured but the PR author cannot be resolved.\n- Keep unset allowlists open, and keep the non-member skip branch intact.\n- Restage the pr-reviewer bundle, runner, and persona artifacts so deployment uses the updated behavior.\n\n## Validation\n- npm run test:review\n- 4/4 focused reviewer tests passing\n\n## Notes\n- Bundle drift is confined to the restaged reviewer patch set and generated deployment artifacts.\n- Repo-wide npm test is still blocked by the separate linear-tsc lane, which is intentionally out of scope here.
Summary by cubic

CodeAnt-AI Description
Skip reviews when the PR author cannot be confirmed
What Changed
- When
REVIEW_AUTHORSis set and the PR author cannot be resolved, the reviewer now skips the PR instead of proceeding. - PRs from authors not listed in
REVIEW_AUTHORSare skipped with a clear reason. - The reviewer now exposes
REVIEW_AUTHORSin its settings, makes the Slack channel optional, and keeps its GitHub/Slack connections declared for deployment. - Added focused tests for allowed authors, blocked authors, unresolved authors, and the open-allowlist case.
Impact
✅ Fewer unintended PR reviews
✅ Clearer skip reasons for author-based review rules
✅ Safer review gating when author data is missing
