Description

For some reason it appears that when a dependabot PR is superseded by a new one and is closed, the pull_request: closed event isn't fired?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the cleanup-previews behavior when Dependabot supersedes and closes a pull request, then inspect the cleanup-previews action's event handling. Done means the preview cleanup runs for this closure case, with a test or reproducible verification covering the behavior.
