fix(dependabot): Follow Conventional Commits

[piotrzajac]

Summary

Dependabot should follow conventional commits

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores
  • Standardized Dependabot-generated commit messages to improve commit history clarity. Dependency update commits (including package manager and automation updates) now use consistent prefixes and scopes so automated updates appear with predictable, readable messages. This aligns automated commits with the project’s commit-message conventions and CI validation rules.

Checklist

• Commit messages follow Conventional Commits (type(scope): description)
• dotnet build src/Objectivity.AutoFixture.XUnit2.AutoMock.sln passes with no warnings
• dotnet test src/Objectivity.AutoFixture.XUnit2.AutoMock.sln passes on all framework slices
• Code coverage remains at least at the level prior the change (verified by Codecov)
• Mutation score remains at least at the level prior the change (verified by Stryker)
• New tests follow the GIVEN/WHEN/THEN naming convention and AAA structure (see AGENTS.md)
• No new [SuppressMessage] without a justification comment
• No // TODO: comments added — open a GitHub issue instead
• No new dependencies introduced that are incompatible with the MIT license (verified by FOSSA)

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Added a backlog task to fix Dependabot commit messages to follow Conventional Commits and updated .github/dependabot.yml to set ecosystem-specific commit-message prefixes for nuget and github-actions without include: "scope".

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Backlog Task Documentation .backlog/tasks/task-8 - Fix-Dependabot-commit-messages-to-follow-Conventional-Commits.md	New task file describing acceptance criteria and implementation plan to make Dependabot commit messages follow Conventional Commits; marks task Done and references dependency on TASK-3.
Dependabot Configuration .github/dependabot.yml	Updated two update entries to add commit-message blocks with prefix: "chore(nuget)" for the nuget ecosystem and prefix: "chore(github-actions)" for github-actions; omitted include: "scope".

- Around line 25-26: Update the acceptance criteria entries that currently
expect ecosystem-based scopes (the checklist items referencing "Dependabot NuGet
update commits" and "Dependabot GitHub Actions update commits" and similar
lines) to use Dependabot's actual dependency-type scopes: replace occurrences of
`chore(nuget): ...` and `chore(github-actions): ...` with `chore(deps): bump
...` for production deps and `chore(deps-dev): bump ...` for dev dependencies so
the items (`#1`, `#2` and the other similar lines) reflect Dependabot's
`commit-message.include: scope` behavior.

In @.github/dependabot.yml:
- Line 1: The file's first line "version: 2" currently uses CRLF line endings;
change the file's line endings to LF only (replace CRLF with \n) so YAMLlint
passes — ensure the file is saved/committed with Unix (LF) line endings and no
trailing CR characters remain.

1-1: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Normalize this YAML file to LF line endings.

Line 1 still uses CRLF, which will continue failing YAMLlint (expected \n). Please re-save the file with LF-only line endings.
