Add Dependabot permissions warnings

[Marcono1234]

Why:

Dependabot intentionally has no built-in automerge feature (dependabot/dependabot-core#1973 (comment)), and in the past permissions for Dependabot workflows were changed to read-only by default (changelog entry).

If I understand it correctly, the concern is that a Dependabot workflow with write permissions could be exploited by a compromised dependency to immediately compromise the consuming repository as soon as the Dependabot PR is created, without any interaction of the owner.

Therefore adding a custom automerge workflow for Dependabot or giving its workflows write permissions can be a security risk, and is probably worth pointing out in the documentation.

Slightly related to #37657, but does not resolve it

What's being changed (if available, include any code snippets, screenshots, or gifs):

Add warnings to the documentation to inform users about the risk of giving Dependabot workflows more permissions.

I hope these warnings do not seem like fear mongering (any feedback regarding wording is welcome!). Maybe some users who set up auto merging of Dependabot PRs might not consider this a big issue (or an issue at all).

Please let me know if I am misunderstanding the security risk here, or if you would like the warnings to be changed.
