fix: down merging main to dev

[Harsh-Microsoft]

Purpose

This pull request introduces several updates across multiple areas, including dependency management, workflow automation, package upgrades, and code improvements. The most significant changes involve grouping dependencies for better organization, adding a new workflow for auto-merging Dependabot PRs, updating package versions, and refining code logic for improved functionality and readability.

Dependency Management Updates:

• .github/dependabot.yml: Grouped dependencies by ecosystem (e.g., GitHub Actions, NuGet, npm) and reduced the open pull request limit from 100 to 10 for better manageability. Added grouping patterns for each ecosystem. [1] [2] [3]

Workflow Automation:

• .github/workflows/scheduled-Dependabot-PRs-Auto-Merge.yml: Introduced a new workflow to automatically detect, rebase (if needed), and merge Dependabot PRs targeting the dependabotchanges branch. The workflow supports multiple merge strategies, handles errors gracefully, and includes scheduled daily runs and manual triggers.

Package Version Updates:

• App/kernel-memory/Directory.Packages.props: Upgraded the Azure.AI.DocumentIntelligence package from version 1.0.0-beta.2 to 1.0.0 to use the stable release.

Code Improvements:

• App/kernel-memory/service/Core/DataFormats/Pdf/PdfMarkdownDecoder.cs: Refactored the DecodeAsync method to use AnalyzeDocumentOptions for better encapsulation and clarity, replacing individual parameters with structured options. [1] [2]
• Deployment/resourcedeployment.ps1: Improved error handling and logic in the Check-Docker function by checking the $LASTEXITCODE for failures and refining conditional statements for better readability.

Removed Redundant Code:

• Deployment/kubernetes/enable_approuting.psm1: Removed a redundant command for enabling the HTTP application routing addon, as it is already covered by the main routing enablement command.

Does this introduce a breaking change?

• Yes
• No
