[Feature Request] The perf workflow requires maintainer approval - it could be useful to provide a way to opt out of these requests

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Maintainers tend to get a large number of notifications by providing control over these notifications can help keep them focused. With the addition of the Perf Workflow [1] approval process there are more notifications coming from the OpenSearch repo and it isn't clear who owns these or wants to support them.

• [1] [PROPOSAL] Run performance benchmarks on pull requests #14553

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd suggest that we tweak the logic for the maintainer list that becomes the assigned approvers on GitHub issues so that maintainers can opt out of this approval process. By using the CODEOWNERS file this could allow easy visiblity and opt-in/opt-out process for maintainers.

• There was a PR out for review that attempted to add this functionality, but it was discontinued due to being hard to test and lack of impact Allow maintainers to opt-out of perf workflow approval requests #15468

Describe alternatives you've considered

I'm more aggressively fielding my GitHub Notification and these requests have not become burdensome.
