thread new_package_waiting_period through to AutoMerge comment

[ericphanson]

Based on #548 which should get merged first

closes #413, which is a recurring source of confusion on our private registry that uses a much lower number here

I'm so confused about

ERROR: LoadError: LoadError: LoadError: syntax: invalid keyword argument syntax "new_package_waiting_period"
Stacktrace:

Do you have something of the form f(; new_package_waiting_period)?

IIRC, that doesn't work on Julia 1.3. You'll need to do f(; new_package_waiting_period=new_package_waiting_period) instead.

Yes, the kwarg shortcut arrived in Julia 1.5.

[ericphanson]

Yeah, I knew that... but still left one in. It was very confusing because the stacktrace pointed to the wrong file I think. It said

 [1] top-level scope at /home/runner/work/RegistryCI.jl/RegistryCI.jl/src/AutoMerge/pull_requests.jl:174

but that line seemed fine.
