Subject: [PATCH] fix(ci): exempt dependabot from body/footer line-length rules

Dependabot's grouped-update commits embed a markdown changelog table
whose rows legitimately exceed 120 chars per line, blocking every
grouped dependabot PR (#211, #214, #212, #209, etc.).

Migrate from .commitlintrc.json to commitlint.config.js so we can use
the `ignores` predicate to skip commits stamped with the dependabot[bot]
sign-off trailer. Body/footer line-length rules remain enforced at 120
chars for human commits.

Closes #240
