[Feat]: Automate package-lock.json updates via Dependabot

[sheikhlimon]

Description

Currently, whenever package.json changes, we manually run npm install and commit the updated package-lock.json to keep CI passing.

Proposal:

• Use Dependabot to automatically regenerate package-lock.json whenever package.json changes.
• Dependabot will open a PR with the updated lockfile only when necessary.

Note

Optionally, enable GitHub auto-merge for these PRs when CI passes, so no manual commits are needed.

Benefits:

• Eliminates manual lockfile commits.
