Problem statement: Dependabot does not disregard minor or patch updates in accordance with the job's ignore condition.

To have the dependabot ignore the updates, run a task at composer with the ignore condition set to ignore smver-minor and smever-patch. However, this will result in the creation of a PR.

I can now see that Dependabot is receiving the ignore condition when the job starts as a result of my issue investigation. Therefore, the updater is processing them incorrectly.

I'm giving the PHP native helper the "latest allowable version" as a workaround for the aforementioned issue.
When we initialize the version_resolver class, @latest_allowable_version is set.

I have assigned the argument "latest allowable version" to the PHP class.

I have passed both the dependent and the most recent version permitted in the PHP class, rather than just the dependency.

Thus, I am passing Laravel/Framework instead of Laravel/Farmework:11.8.0

Upgrading to version 11 causes a problem with other requirements like symfony because of the configuration of the client's composer file. The following factors make this failure expected.

1. Symfony needs to be updated for Laravel 11.
2. Dependabot is updating Laravel exclusively—not Symphony.
3. Upgrading Laravel to version 11 is more difficult because the client has pinned their version of Symphony to v6 in their composer file.

I am going to modified the test cases at updateChecker with latest_resolvable_version according to fix.
