Summary

The other committer's guide was written years before the cross repo
commit bit stuff. Harmonize and expand a little the advice given to make
it also match the tone of the new policy and our usual practices being a
little more relaxed than what was documented previously.

I really want this case to just be "Reviewed by;" and not "Approved by:". That is, the point is to get review of the change itself not permission to commit a change separate from reviewing it.
