Renovate no longer opens dependency update PRs automatically. Every available update is listed on the Dependency Dashboard issue and only becomes a PR once its checkbox is ticked.

What
Adds
dependencyDashboardApproval: truetorenovate.json.Why
Renovate currently opens dependency update PRs on its own, which adds review noise to the queue. With this change it keeps scanning and keeps reporting, but stops raising PRs unprompted.
Effect
main, since Renovate reads its config from the default branch.Note on security updates
config:recommendedenablesvulnerabilityAlerts, and those PRs are gated by this setting too. If we would rather have CVE fixes keep raising automatically while everything else waits for approval, we can follow up with:Left out of this PR deliberately so the behaviour change here is a single, easily reverted knob.
