- Added Dependabot configuration file to automate dependency updates for the 'esphome' package.
- ESPHome doesn't allow Python 3.14 which Dependabot attempts to use - constrain the Python version correspondingly.

The allow configuration restricts Dependabot to only update the "esphome" package, meaning "pillow" (also present in requirements.txt) will not receive automated updates. If this is intentional and pillow should be manually managed, consider adding a comment explaining why. If pillow should also be updated, either remove the allow section entirely or add pillow to the allowed dependencies list.

According to PEP 621, the [project] table requires a name field. While some tools may tolerate its absence, this incomplete configuration could cause issues with pip or other Python packaging tools. Consider either adding a minimal project name (e.g., name = "esphome-config-sprinkler") or using a different approach to constrain Python versions for Dependabot, such as configuring it directly in the Dependabot configuration file or using a minimal setup.py.
