The previous Dependabot config only covered /, /docs, and /test directories, missing all 37 benchmark subdirectories under benchmarks/. This meant no compat updates were being generated for benchmark packages after CompatHelper was removed in PR SciML#1434. This adds all benchmark directories to the Dependabot Julia ecosystem config. With the existing group pattern, each directory produces its own PR (one PR per benchmark set). Also increases open-pull-requests-limit to 40 to accommodate the additional directories.

Summary
/,/docs, and/test, missing all 37 benchmark subdirectories. This means no compat updates have been generated for benchmark packages since CompatHelper was removed in Add Julia ecosystem to Dependabot configuration #1434.benchmarks/*directories to the Dependabot Julia ecosystem configall-julia-packagesgroup (pattern"*"), Dependabot will create one PR per directory — giving separate PRs per benchmark set as desiredopen-pull-requests-limitfrom default 5 to 40 to accommodate all directoriesWhy Dependabot over CompatHelper?
Dependabot can handle this — the
directorieskey processes each directory independently, and the group pattern bundles all dependency updates within each directory into a single PR. This replicates what CompatHelper was doing (scanning allbenchmarks/*/Project.tomlfiles) while using GitHub's built-in tooling.The one caveat is that Dependabot's Julia ecosystem support is still in beta (
enable-beta-ecosystems: true). If it proves unreliable, reverting to CompatHelper remains an option.Note
There are still 6 stale CompatHelper PRs open (#1432, #1411, #1345, #1268, #1195, #1194) that could be closed.
