[sisu-dev] Upcoming Sisu release

[Tamás Cservenák <tamas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Stuart and Konrad,

prepped some PRs to lift up Maven plugin versions (Maven "base" of 3.6.3 not touched, and is in fact aligned with most of Maven Core plugin updates).

Did not touch:

- spotless, as it have some issues on Java 11/17/21

- bnd as 7.0.0 raises prerequisite to 3.8.1

Also added dependabot to help us keep our builds (and workflows) up to date. If anyone objects, please let me know and will remove it (or tune it down to "weekly" or whatever).

Thanks

T

PS: dependabot created a TON of generated PRs, but most of those will be gone if my PRs are merged (Maven plugin updates). OTOH, workflow updates are created as well...
