fix(ci): remove placeholder entry blocking Dependabot (#66)
This `dependabot.yml` carries GitHub's **unedited placeholder**
alongside a real, correct entry:
```yaml
- package-ecosystem: "" # See documentation for possible values
```
An empty `package-ecosystem` fails Dependabot's schema validation, and
GitHub rejects the **whole file** — not just the bad entry. So the real
`github-actions` entry has never run either.
### Measured, not assumed
The three estate repos in exactly this state have **0 Dependabot PRs
between them**, while comparable repos with valid configs have plenty:
| repo | config | Dependabot PRs |
|---|---|---|
| `blocky-writer` | stub + real entry | **0** |
| `jtv-lang` | stub + real entry | **0** |
| `lcb-website` | stub + real entry | **0** |
| `aerie` | valid | 7 |
| `standards` | valid | 8 |
| `affinescript` | valid | 16 |
| `hypatia` | valid | 63 |
All three do have a populated `.github/workflows/`, so there is
genuinely something for `github-actions` to update.
### Fix
Excise the stub block. The real entry is untouched and becomes live.
Where an entry lacked a `groups:` block it gains one, so an
ecosystem-wide bump arrives as **one** PR instead of one per dependency.
