Summary

Dependabot now opens PRs for minor and patch updates only. Major upgrades are done by hand when they are wanted. This PR also reverts #7, the @types/node 22 → 26 bump that was merged by accident.

Changes

  • .github/dependabot.yml: both the npm and the GitHub Actions entries ignore version-update:semver-major for every dependency. The monthly schedule and the minor/patch groups stay the same.
  • package.json and package-lock.json: revert of Bump @types/node from 22.20.5 to 26.6.5 #7. @types/node goes back to ^22.10.0 (locked at 22.20.5).

Review guide

Start here: .github/dependabot.yml, then the revert commit.
Risk: Low. The revert restores the exact package.json and lockfile state from before #7, which passed CI. @types/node is a dev dependency and is not in the published package.
Deliberately not done: the open major PRs (#2, #3, #5, #6) are not closed here. Close them by hand, because Dependabot may not close them on its own after this config change. @types/node stays on 22 and was not moved to 24 to match the Node 24 runtime, because only the revert was asked for.

This reverts commit 1b31fca. The major bump was merged by accident;
dependency updates here take minor and patch versions only.
Major upgrades are done by hand when they are wanted, so Dependabot
no longer opens PRs for them.
