Code Reviews Update

Copilot Code reviewer:
- Now always runs on balanced tier.
- Runs in an env that has done a dotnet restore on the code.
- When it was offline for a short while, did we miss it?

Notes:
- Several devs mentioned that they miss the codex code reviewer even more, and that they like its comments better.

Continous Delivery Update

Followup from last Arch Forum:

• We will implement an automatic agent monitoring deployments
• We will start to deploy Renovate PRs to prod, given
  • Smoke tests pass
  • Regr tests pass
  • No other PRs would be deployed in the same deploy

Notes:
- Not everyone is sold on having automatic prod deploys.
- Not all repos have regression tests. A good step would be to make the existing relevant tests from other repos run, like having remittance regressions for mf-remittance for example.
