Keep only the core pnpm workspace npm entry and GitHub Actions. Remove separate entries for http-client-csharp, http-client-java, and http-client-python.

…oups (#10135) ## Problem The dependabot configuration had an `allow` filter that restricted npm dependency updates to only `@alloy-js/*` packages, preventing dependabot from creating PRs for any other workspace dependencies. Additionally, GitHub Actions had no dependency monitoring. ## Changes ### Key fix - **Removed the `allow` filter** that blocked all non-alloy-js updates, enabling dependabot to create PRs for the full pnpm workspace. ### Dependency groups for main workspace (18 groups) Groups related dependencies to batch updates into single PRs instead of individual ones: | Group | Packages | ~Count | |-------|----------|--------| | alloy | `@alloy-js/*` | 7 | | types | `@types/*` | 20+ | | testing | vitest, playwright, testing-library, mocha, happy-dom, c8 | 10+ | | linting | eslint, typescript-eslint, cspell | 8+ | | build-tools | esbuild, vite, typescript, tsx, rollup | 8+ | | website | astro, docsearch, rehype, remark, typedoc, sharp | 12+ | | ui | react, fluentui, storybook, prism-react-renderer | 12+ | | vscode | VS Code extension packages | 7 | | formatting | prettier and plugins | 4 | | microsoft | API extractor, tsdoc | 5 | | chronus | `@chronus/*` | 2 | | tree-sitter | all tree-sitter parsers | 6 | | octokit | GitHub API packages | 3 | | azure | Azure SDK packages | 2 | | yarnpkg | Yarn packages | 5 | | babel | Babel packages | 2 | | scalar | Scalar OpenAPI packages | 3 | | monaco | Monaco editor packages | 2 | ### New dependency monitoring - **GitHub Actions** — monitors action version updates across all workflows, grouped into a single PR. Excludes locked workflow files (`*.lock.{yaml,yml}`). ### Schedule optimization - Changed main workspace npm check from **daily** to **weekly** to reduce noise. <!-- START COPILOT CODING AGENT TIPS --> --- ⌨️ Start Copilot coding agent tasks without leaving your editor — available in [VS Code](https://gh.io/cca-vs-code-docs), [Visual Studio](https://gh.io/cca-visual-studio-docs), [JetBrains IDEs](https://gh.io/cca-jetbrains-docs) and [Eclipse](https://gh.io/cca-eclipse-docs). --------- Co-authored-by: copilot-swe-agent[bot] <198982749+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: timotheeguerin <1031227+timotheeguerin@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Timothee Guerin <tiguerin@microsoft.com>
