Why:

Closes#11830

I discovered that reusable workflows do not support the strategy property and that was not documented anywhere. So, I added that to the list of limitations.

That issue, however, still needs to be confirmed.

What's being changed:

Very little is being changed. Just one line with a limitation was added to an existing list.

Check off the following:

  • I have reviewed my changes in staging (look for "Automatically generated comment" and click Modified to view your latest changes).
  • For content changes, I have completed the self-review checklist.

Writer impact (This section is for GitHub staff members only):

  • This pull request impacts the contribution experience
    • I have added the 'writer impact' label
    • I have added a description and/or a video demo of the changes below (e.g. a "before and after video")

I discovered that reusable workflows do not support the `strategy` property and that was not documented anywhere.
