Configure Dependabot updates to open PRs against next

[Copilot]

Dependabot was configured for GitHub Actions updates but did not specify the integration branch, so update PRs could default away from the repository’s next flow. This change aligns Dependabot’s PR target with the branch policy.

• What changed

  • Updated .github/dependabot.yml for the github-actions ecosystem to explicitly set target-branch: "next".

• Resulting behavior

  • Dependabot-generated GitHub Actions dependency PRs are now opened against next rather than relying on default branch inference.

updates:
  - package-ecosystem: "github-actions"
    directory: "/"
    target-branch: "next"
