renovate/dependabot support

[benedikt-bartscher]

Reflex allows to specify npm deps via library and lib_dependencies string attributes of a Component.

Renovate and Dependabot will not parse such versions without additional plugins or configurations. It would be awesome if we could implement/document such config/plugins for reflex users and maybe even reflex-internal usage.

My team only uses renovate, I can be a bit more specific about that:

• Renovate is highly configurable, I could write a (complicated and error-prone) regex manager to parse the versions from python files (https://docs.renovatebot.com/modules/manager/regex/). This one will probably be easy, and I will raise a PR documenting those regexes if @reflex-dev is interested.
• For best support, we could later implement our own reflex manager for renovate (in TypeScript)

We could also implement a fancy approach where reflex (alternatively) allows setting library and lib_dependencies to a Path with a package.json. One big advantage is that this approach will probably add support for all dependency management tools. One disadvantage is that we have to leave python to adjust the versions.
