Renovate is released continuously and generates a noisy amount of updates. Given that the version of renovate here is different to our hosted version, they're out-of-sync anyway so there's no need to update it so aggressively.

This PR reduces Renovate’s update noise by adding a weekly schedule specifically for Renovate’s own dependency updates, aligning updates with the project’s preference to keep the in-repo Renovate version from drifting too frequently.
Changes:
