Add documentation on handling auto merge limitation when using Renovate App in Gitlab.

Problem: Gitlab couldn't auto merge into master because it didn't have permissions.

Solution:
Pick one of the following

  • Allow all developers to merge into master branch
  • Change renovate-bot member permission from developer to maintainer
  • Allow renovate-bot (member) to merge into master.
  • Change master branch from protected branch to unprotected branch

Issue regarding documentation in dealing with auto merge permission in Gitlab renovatebot/config-help#777

Can you add a part for "automergeType": "branch". I think renovate needs push permissions then.
