Dependabot's default behavior for Go modules skips major version bumps, so security fixes that land in a new major release (e.g. a CVE fixed in v29.x when we're on v28.x) never generate a PR.

Added versioning-strategy: increase-if-necessary to the gomod ecosystem in .github/dependabot.yml

ℹ️ Alternatively we can use semver-major

Closes DRG-826
