Dependabot's groups: only apply to version updates. Security updates ignore
them, so every advisory opened its own pull request and its own CI run —
633 Dependabot runs across these repos in the last 90 days, twelve of them
on one repo on a single day.

applies-to: security-updates gives the advisories a group of their own, so a
batch of transitive CVEs lands as one PR instead of one per package. The
existing weekly groups and cooldowns are untouched.

Only real package ecosystems get the group: GitHub Actions and Docker have no
Dependabot security advisories, so a group there would do nothing.
