Auto-merge Renovate bot PRs

[ciaranmcnulty]

On another project we are using this action https://github.com/ridedott/merge-me-action

It can auto-merge PRs as long as the tests fail. It'd need to trigger based on CircleCI pass, which seems doable, then in the config of that action we need to specify the name of the bot that gets auto merged https://github.com/ridedott/merge-me-action#enable-auto-merge-for-a-different-bot

Did you know about:

https://docs.renovatebot.com/configuration-options/#automerge

I've set it up in cucumber-jvm for minor and patch versions:

https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber-jvm/blob/main/.github/renovate.json#L11

Major versions need some semver consideration so those are better done manually.

In fact, looks like auto merge is already enabled for this repo:

https://github.com/cucumber/common/blob/main/.github/renovate.json#L14

Ah that probably covers it :)

You may want to fix your other project. :laughing:
