doc: revise objections section of collaborator guide
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The bold text is overused in this section. This change removes it. It
also changes some wording: PR -> pull request, can -> may in a rare
instance where "may" is the right choice in our docs, etc. (The
recommendation to avoid "may" is because "may" implies permission rather
than just ability. Yes, I'm probably the one that changed it from "may"
in the first place.)

#### Objections

**Collaborators can object to a pull request by using the "Request
Changes" GitHub feature**. Dissent comments alone don't constitute an
objection. **Any PR objection must include a clear reason for that objection,
and the objector must remain responsive for further discussion towards
consensus about the direction of the pull request**. Providing a set of
actionable steps alongside the objection is recommended.

If the objection is not clear to others, another collaborator can ask an

Pull requests with outstanding objections must remain open until all
objections are satisfied. If reaching consensus is not possible, a
collaborator can escalate the issue to the TSC by pinging `@nodejs/tsc` and
adding the `tsc-agenda` label to the issue.
