Ignoring dependency types in Dependabot

Use the update-types key in an ignore group to ignore that type of dependencies.

For example:

version: 2
updates:
  - package-ecosystem: "npm"
    directory: "/"
    schedule:
      interval: "daily"
    ignore:
      - dependency-name: "@types/node"
        # For Node types, ignore any patch versions
        update-types: ["version-update:semver-patch"]
        # Ignore all major version updates, since they're breaking
      - dependency-name: "*"
        update-types: ["version-update:semver-major"]

Here patch versions of @types/node are ignored, as well as all major versions.
