Allow some bots through the GitHub Webhook Filter

This allows the Fast Forward bot and GitHub Actions scripts through the
webhook filter.

* Fast Forward bot should be allowed as otherwise any event created by
this bot (i.e. it's merges to main) are not reported into Discord as it
is considered a bot payload
* GitHub Actions are generally things we have created ourselves and are
not normally high noise, and as such are also worth reporting
