Add phrase-level pre-judging triggers to reviewer prompt rule

Resumed the offending eval controller session and asked it why it
pre-judged despite the rule being in context. Its retrospective: the
motive was avoiding a review loop, the abstract rule was read but not
applied at the moment it governs, and a phrase-level trigger ('do not
flag', 'at most Minor', 'don't treat X as a defect', 'the plan chose')
would have fired where the principle did not.
