Renovate: group all minor and patch updates into a single PR

Export

Add a packageRules entry that matches all packages with matchUpdateTypes of minor and patch and sets a groupName and groupSlug, for example grouping everything into one all-minor-patch branch.

Add a packageRules entry that matches all packages with matchUpdateTypes of minor and patch and sets a groupName and groupSlug, for example grouping everything into one all-minor-patch branch. Major updates stay separate by default, which is what you want since they need individual review. Adjust the matchers if you want per-ecosystem groups instead of one global group.

Context: Stack Overflow #66471226 (accepted answer, 29 votes): Renovate opens a separate PR and branch per dependency update, so five new versions means five pipelines, and merging one forces the other four to rebase and re-run. The accepted answer shows how to group updates together with a package rule.
