Check if PR introduces errant RFC-2119 Error: The added code should not contain must | must not | shall | shall not | should | should not | may
@pkra @spectranaut Can you help me understand the problem with this RFC-2119 change? Yes, it's a change, but it's not "errant."

The github action being used for this is not that smart.
This won't stop us from merging the PR.
cc @daniel-montalvo in case there are better options known on the W3C end.
FWIW we could at least change the language of the message and replace "introduces errant" with "contains no".
From what I recall, GitHub Actions don't provide a warning-level, which might be more appropriate. Ideally, we could make it possible to manually dismiss the "failure" (like we can with IPR check).
