Why

Renovate upgrades versions that these workflows deliberately exercise. For example, #394 changes the pinned actions/cache version in cache-v2-compatibility.yml from v3.4.0 to v6.1.0, removing coverage of the older action.

What

Disable the github-actions manager's updates only in testdata/** and the named example, oracle, and proof workflows and fixture actions. Cover both YAML extensions and new fixtures in those families without excluding all of .github.

Dependency location Updates
testdata/smoke/.github/workflows/cache-v2-compatibility.yml Preserve fixture versions
.github/workflows/example-artifacts.yml Preserve fixture versions
.github/workflows/windows-runtime.yml Keep updating
Buildkite pipelines, go.mod, mise.toml, hosted runner images Keep updating

Document the boundary in the contributor guide. The exclusion is manager-scoped, so other dependency managers are unchanged, including Dockerfile updates under testdata.

Leave #393, #394, #397, #515, and #516 open until this merges. Afterward, regenerate #393 to retain its legitimate CI, Go, and toolchain updates; the fixture-only PRs become obsolete.

Related: #594 addresses private-preset access separately. This PR does not change the preset or choose which Renovate bot owns the repository.

Scope Renovate exclusions to GitHub Actions in fixture paths, leaving real CI and other dependency managers enabled.
