Applied on dev in 2a8de7e instead of merging into main: merging into main publishes a release, so dependency updates belong on dev. .github/dependabot.yml now sets target-branch: dev, so the next ones will open there.

[dependabot]

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
