Dependabot cannot configure the branch prefix, which means it fails everytime it tries to run because we only allow user/ branches.

This is in preparation for using Renovate which supports custom branch prefixes and has other advantages, like the ability to run/get setup without any assisstance from a repository admin unlike dependabot. This makes it significantly more hackable for the rest of the community.
