Feature Description

Given the following config:
Branch Protection activated, at least 1 approval and Dismiss stale reviews activated.

When I create a PR and Bob reviews the PR his name will get a green checkmark in Reviewers area. (as expected)
I'll now push a change to this PR and Bobs review is dismissed.
The reviewers section now shows me the "hourglass" icon (changes after review) AND it shows me the green checkmark.

At least for me it feels like the green checkmark signals that everything is "good to go". But actually Bob needs to reapprove the changes.

Suggestion: use an orange checkmark (signalling there was an approved review but it's not based on latest PR sha)
