🔧 Repository: Renovate changesets on devDependencies

[awanlin]

📜 Description

The renovate-changeset action is adding changesets for changes that are only devDependencies. When we merge these changes it then kicks off the version packages which we don't need in this case as the package hans't actually changed

This is properly not something that we fix in this repo but here: https://github.com/backstage/actions/tree/main/renovate-changesets, logging it here for visibility and so I don't forget about it.

👍 Expected behavior

There should be not changesets if the changes are just related to devDependencies

👎 Current Behavior

Changesets are added when there change is just for devDependencies
