Gen Dependency Updater

Generate a Dependabot or Renovate config (`.github/dependabot.yml` or `renovate.json`) for the active stack with sensible defaults (weekly schedule, minor+patch grouping, open-PR cap at 5). Preview- before-mutate: prints the rendered config and exits without writing unless `--apply` is passed. Idempotent: same content is a no-op, different content shows a diff and refuses to overwrite without `--force-overwrite`. TRIGGER when the user says "add dependabot", "enable dependabot", "add renovate", "set up renovate", "configure dependency updates", "automate dependency updates", "scaffold dependabot.yml", "create renovate.json", "add automated dependency PRs", "wire dependency bot", "turn on dependency updates", "/nyann:gen-dependency-updater". Do NOT trigger on "update my dependencies" / "run npm update" — that's a one-off package-manager invocation, not config scaffolding. Do NOT trigger on "fix this dependabot PR" — that's a workflow inside a specific PR, not config generation.
