The old custom workflow to auto-update pre-commit was pretty buggy:
if you forgot to delete the branch after merging a PR it would create
a new PR without any changes, and the output of pre-commit after updating the
hooks contained a failure it would be pretty hard to
see. pre-commit.ci solves all that, plus we don't have to maintain
it ourselves...
