Make Runner Fleet backend reviews optional

What does this MR do and why?

Make Runner Fleet backend reviews optional

  • We already have mandatory reviews from the verify team for the most of our changes. Most of the time Verify reviewers are qualified enough to review our code.
  • Adding additional mandatory CODEOWNERS section creates additional friction.
  • We only have 2 Rails developers on the runner team, so it's hard to find reviewers when someone is on PTO.

See !143214 (comment 1766708808) as an example.

So I suggest we make Runner team reviews optional.

Also, refactored this to use CODEOWNERS section.
