Description

This updates the tolerance for the similar issues bot to 0.81.

Motivation and Context

Main motivation is to decrease the noise from the bot. With this higher tolerance value it is much more likely to only show issues that are actually a duplicate.

How was 0.81 chosen?

We did a statistical analysis of the likelihood of an issue being a dupe or not a dupe as identified by the bot, and found that 0.81 is a good balance to be more strict and show less false positives (non-dupes) while still being low enough to not exclude lots of good duplicate issues (false negatives).
