Fix Dependabot secret resolution for GitHub Packages registry (#622)

* Initial plan

* fix: use DEPENDABOT_GITHUB_PACKAGES_TOKEN instead of GITHUB_TOKEN in dependabot.yml

GITHUB_TOKEN is not available as a secret in the Dependabot context
because Dependabot version updates run on their own infrastructure,
not on GitHub Actions runners. Replace with a PAT stored as a
Dependabot secret.

Update documentation in .github/workflows/README.md and
docs/development/workflows.md to reflect the PAT approach as the
current method with setup instructions.
