How to register an account on GitLab. Due to spam, new accounts are locked until approved by an admin or the approver bot. Your GitLab account gets automatically approved within one hour if you are a member of Trusted Contributors in Gerrit, or a member of the Trusted-Contributors group in Phabricator and linked your Developer account to your Phabricator account. If none of these apply, you can file an unlock request to expedite access.

Adds author for slightly better feature parity with existing gerritbot info. (I'm not sure this matters as much since committer will probably differ from author less often, but I suspect having the name as well as the username is useful signal in a lot of cases.)
Also updates the README.md to link the wiki page.
