I think it makes sense to avoid wasting CI cycles on commits only changing
README files since we know it will be a no-op. A README documentation patch
going through N revisions will incur at least N full CI runs which are
resources we can spend on other things. So +1 for doing this both in CI and in
the buildfarm.
