Description

https://github.com/mozilla-services/merino-py does continuous deployment - every merge goes thru the full release + deployment cycle. So, they would prefer to merge a single PR of many dependency updates at the same time.

So, add a feature to automerge so a target repo can configure automerge to convert all the separate dependabot PRs that are eligible for auto-merge into a single PR isntead.
