Documentation: RISC-V: patch-acceptance: mention patchwork's role
Palmer suggested at some point, not sure if it was in one of the
weekly linux-riscv syncs, or a conversation at FOSDEM, that we
should document the role of the automation running on our patchwork
instance plays in patch acceptance.
Add a short note to the patch-acceptance document to that end.
