title: "Add or update dependabot.yml configuration"
body: |
This PR adds or updates the dependabot.yml configuration file to ensure automated dependency updates are properly configured.
## Configuration Details
Common settings across all ecosystems:
- Weekly updates every Monday at 09:00 (Europe/London)
- Maximum of 1 open PR at a time
- Groups patch and minor updates together
- Ignores major version updates
- Adds ecosystem-specific labels
### Configured Package Ecosystems:
1. **NuGet (.NET)**
- Label: `dependencies`, `nuget`
- Updates all dependencies
2. **npm (Node.js)**
- Label: `dependencies`, `npm`
- Updates all dependencies
3. **Docker**
- Label: `dependencies`, `docker`
- Updates all container images
4. **GitHub Actions**
- Label: `dependencies`, `github-actions`
- Updates all workflow actions
5. **Python (pip)**
- Label: `dependencies`, `pip`
- Updates all Python packages
6. **Terraform**
- Label: `dependencies`, `terraform`
- Updates all providers and modules
### Update Strategy
- Groups updates by patch and minor versions to reduce PR noise
- Major version updates are excluded to prevent breaking changes
- Each ecosystem has its own label for better visibility
