Pull request overview
This PR fixes the auto-assign workflow to prevent maintainers from being automatically assigned to their own PRs when they comment on them. The fix adds conditions to check whether the commenter is the PR owner before triggering the assignment.
- Added condition checks to skip auto-assignment when the commenter is the PR owner
- Updated the workflow comment to reflect the new behavior

The auto-assign workflow from #19203 assigns maintainers as assignees when they comment on PRs, but doesn't skip when the commenter is the PR owner.
Added conditions to skip assignment when commenter equals PR author:
