Add dependabot.yml for version updates

[kanwalpreetd]

What

Adding base config for dependabot.yml, which enables automatic PRs for dependency version updates through Dependabot. This base config sets version updates to run on a weekly schedule, groups PRs for version updates, and sets max PRs that Dependabot can create for version updates per package-ecosystem. But if you would like, several config options can be added to dependabot.yml as per configuration-options-for-the-dependabot.yml-file to customize version updates, such as:

• Group PRs for version updates by different criteria
• Set reviewers for Dependabot version updates PRs
• Etc.

Also, automatic PRs for security updates through Dependabot are already enabled through a global setting. PRs for security updates will be grouped as much as possible across directories and per ecosystem through the global setting (grouping-dependabot-security-updates). But dependabot.yml can also be used for more granular security updates settings in addition to version updates (some of the options in dependabot.yml are shared across security and version updates), such as:

• Grouping security updates according to custom criteria: overriding-the-default-behavior-with-a-configuration-file
• Etc.

Why

To enable using the latest package versions, and provide a way to customize Dependabot security updates PRs.
