Conversation
Group related dependencies together so dependabot updates them in a single PR instead of individually. This prevents CI failures caused by incompatible version combinations when dependencies are updated separately.

Problem
Dependabot PRs are failing because related dependencies are not grouped together. When a package and its transitive dependencies are updated in separate PRs, the individual PRs can have incompatible version combinations that cause CI failures.
Example: binaryornot update failing without cookiecutter update
#8767
#8763
Changes
Added dependency groups to
.github/dependabot.ymlso that related packages are updated together in a single PR:Groups were derived from the dependency graph in `requirements/reproducible-linux.txt`.
Testing
No code changes — config-only update to dependabot grouping.
