Updated the failure bot caller with respect to new improvements.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThis change updates the CI failure bot GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/bot-ci-failure.yml). It changes the job permissions for actions from read to write, tightens the job-if condition to require both Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

In @.github/workflows/bot-ci-failure.yml:
- Around line 37-39: The PR author extraction can return the literal "null"
string because jq '.author.login' yields null rather than an empty string;
update the gh pr view command that sets pr_author to use jq with the // empty
fallback (e.g., '.author.login // empty') so it outputs an empty string instead
of "null", and then change the check around pr_author (the variable set by
pr_author=$(gh pr view ...)) to treat both empty and the literal "null" as
missing (i.e., if [ -z "$pr_author" ] || [ "$pr_author" = "null" ] then emit the
warning).

Update the trigger condition to check author_association and restrict to MEMBERS/OWNERS; document rationale and PR `#1233` reference in code comments.

Learning: In repositories within the OpenWISP organization, it is acceptable to reference reusable workflows from other OpenWISP-controlled repos using mutable refs (e.g., master) in .github/workflows. This is permissible due to the shared trust boundary within the organization. If applying this pattern, ensure the target repos are under the same organization and maintain awareness of potential breakages from upstream mutable refs; consider pinning to a tagged version for longer-term stability when appropriate.

In @.github/workflows/bot-ci-failure.yml:
- Line 11: The workflow grants unnecessary permission "actions: write"; confirm
whether the reusable workflow reusable-bot-ci-failure.yml
(openwisp/openwisp-utils@master) actually needs write scope for any called step
or API, and if not, remove or downgrade this permission to "actions: read" (or
omit it) in the job definition to follow least-privilege; update the job
permissions accordingly and ensure any referenced commands (gh pr view, gh api
commits/pulls, gh pr list) still work with the reduced scope.

21-21: Good execution guard for CI-failure PR runs.
Line 21correctly limits this workflow to failedpull_requestworkflow_run events, reducing non-PR and non-failure noise.
38-39: Null/empty PR-author handling looks correct now.
Lines 38-39properly treat missing author values as invalid and emit a warning instead of silently passing bad output.
