Describe the problem

I have :automergeLinters in my config, but the MR that tries to update PHP-CS-Fixer says that automerge is disabled by config. It's a linter, and it's not being considered as that.

Relevant debug logs

No response

Have you created a minimal reproduction repository?

I have explained in the description why a minimal reproduction is impossible

Renovate does not have any magic ability to know every linter in the world, so the list is manually maintained. PRs welcome
