But I don't know it meets our expectation. Because the higher roles can reduce the `remainingAdditional`, I think the remaining number should be only set to `updatedLimits` but not added to `updatedLimits`. This matches the documentation `Require that at least N users with given role (defaults to Author) review the pull request`, especially the key work `at least`.

> - adjust the reply message, always output the concrete reviewers. Because the merged logic of jcheck config and user `reviewers` command is a little hard, we should let the user know the result directly instead of guessing the result.
