What does this PR do?

  • Scopes minimumReleaseAgeBehaviour: "timestamp-optional" to the docker-images Renovate group.
  • Enables the dependency dashboard.

Motivation

The 7-day minimumReleaseAge on the docker-images group can never be satisfied. Renovate's docker datasource only reads release timestamps from Docker Hub, and the two images tracked in .gitlab/tagger/Dockerfile come from ghcr.io (renovate#39064) and registry.ddbuild.io. Since Renovate 42, minimumReleaseAgeBehaviour defaults to timestamp-required, so a release with no timestamp is treated as not yet aged, and renovate/stability-days stays pending indefinitely rather than for 7 days. #24835 is an example.

timestamp-optional rather than dropping minimumReleaseAge, so the age check still applies if an image from a registry that does publish timestamps is added to the group later.

The dependency dashboard makes updates held back by the age check visible. Without it there is no way to tell "held back" from "nothing to update" short of reading the job log.

Review checklist (to be filled by reviewers)

  • Feature or bugfix MUST have appropriate tests (unit, integration, e2e)
  • Add qa/required if this PR needs QA validation, or qa/skip-qa if it does not. Exactly one of the two is required.
  • If you need to backport this PR to another branch, you can add the backport/<branch-name> label to the PR and it will automatically open a backport PR once this one is merged

…pass

ghcr.io and registry.ddbuild.io do not return release timestamps, and since Renovate
42 a missing timestamp counts as never having aged, so the 7-day
renovate/stability-days check on those images stays pending forever. Scope
minimumReleaseAgeBehaviour to timestamp-optional for that group, which keeps the
age check wherever a registry does publish timestamps.

Also enable the dependency dashboard, so updates held back by the age check are
visible instead of just absent.
