I'm always a bit hesitant to add trailers referring to off-list reviews
to commits. It's impossible for a future reader to discover how that
trailer came to be by just using the mailing list archive, and expecting
them to use third-party services to verify them feels wrong to me.

It's part of the reason why I'm pushing more into the direction of
on-list reviews at GitLab. It makes it a lot more obvious how such a
Reviewed-by came to be and keeps things self-contained on the mailing
list. It also grows new contributors who are becoming more familiar with
how the Git mailing list works. If such a review already happened
internally due to whatever reason then I think it ought to be fine for
that reviewer to chime in saying that they have already reviewed the
patch series and that things look good to them.
