Routine Dependabot updates currently run weekly and use inconsistent grouping. This change adopts the shared dependabot-monthly-v1 maintenance window to reduce routine notification and CI churn without delaying security updates or hiding major upgrades.

Both existing scopes (devcontainers / and github-actions /) now use the first-of-month 09:00 Pacific/Auckland schedule, three-day cooldown, canonical separate minor/patch and event-driven security groups, explicit PR limits, deps prefixes, canonical labels, and automatic rebasing. Added the missing labels while preserving the legacy label, and documented the schedule and manual-check escape hatch.

Validated against the Dependabot v2 schema and exact structural assertions for all configured entries, including representative minor, patch, major, and security matching. Repository vulnerability alerts and automated security fixes are enabled. Runtime confirmation of the next run and observed PR grouping remains pending until the change is on the default branch.

Fixes: #57

Apply the shared monthly update schedule, canonical minor/patch and security groups, and consistent labels across existing Dependabot scopes. Document the maintenance window and security-update exception.
