Proposed Changes
Adds some copilot instructions to hopefully help copilot give better code reviews.
Reason for Changes
Copilot kinda sucks at reviewing blockly PRs right now. Added some instructions but I'm just guessing on what works here.
Copilot reviewer is limited to the first 4000 characters of instructions, so this is pretty terse and there is not a lot of background info about the repo, etc. We could put some of that in
agents.mdfiles instead to help people using copilot for authoring code. This is focused on code review.There is definitely some recency bias in issues we've seen lately with PRs from contributors (breaking changes, translation, etc) so feel free to suggest things I'm missing
