Adds a dependabot.yml enabling weekly version updates with a 7-day cooldown, matching what we run in evergreen. Cooldown applies to version updates only, so security updates still land immediately. Reviewers come from CODEOWNERS since Dependabot's reviewers option was retired in favor of code owners. The owned paths are limited to the files Dependabot touches so unrelated PRs aren't gated.
