Resolves #32879 by documenting the branches and branches-ignore filters for the merge_group event.

Both filters are supported for merge_group — the GitHub Actions team confirmed branches-ignore support directly in the issue thread (validated with a branches-ignore: ["main"] workflow). branches has been supported since the merge queue beta (Aug 2022).

This adds a short note plus two YAML examples (include and exclude) to the end of the ## merge_group section of events-that-trigger-workflows.md, mirroring the existing branches/branches-ignore documentation style used for pull_request.

Note: this is an English-only content addition; localized files remain behind English, which is the allowed direction for the localization sync check.
