Description

Currently when the bot needinfo's me to set a severity on a bug it is also CCing me to the bug. Can we not do that? If I want to be CCed I will do so when I respond to the needinfo, for the vast majority of such cases I have no interest in being CCed to the bug.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Locate the code handling bot-generated needinfo requests and the accompanying Bugzilla CC update, then inspect tests for that workflow; done means a severity needinfo no longer adds the requester to the bug's CC list unless they choose to be CCed.
