The patch status had target: 30%, so PRs with 0% diff coverage (e.g. docs- or config-only changes with no measurable lines) failed with a misleading red "x" even when nothing testable changed. Marking the patch status informational keeps the coverage percentage visible on the PR without ever blocking or reporting a failing status. Co-Authored-By: Claude <svc-devxp-claude@slack-corp.com>

This pull request makes the Codecov patch status informational so it no longer shows a misleading failing "x".
