Switch from dependabot to renovate?

[David]

According to @dzikoysk, we can get renovate to bump with more than 1 dep update at a time, which would be great:

We can also get Dependabot to do it: https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/dependabot/dependabot-version-updates/configuration-options-for-the-dependabot.yml-file#groups

Imo installing a third party dependency manager with similar functionality is undesirable if we can use built-in GitHub tooling.

@dzikoysk are there any other missing features that would make it worth switching?

If we can do this in dependabot, then I would prefer not switching.

The dashboard is nice, because you can trigger it directly before a release and just get rid of a lot of PRs in the first place.
