This will check the origin remote if it exists and use that to determine which branches exist. These branches are then used to populate CI branches, branch protections, and dependabot. Using this for dependabot is a new feature which allows old release branches to get dependency updates for template-oss only. This also updates the dependabot config to only update the root directory instead of each workspace directory. The previous way was an attempt to get it to work with workspaces, but wasn't used in any our repos. Dependabot should now be able to update workspaces when configured to use a single root directory. Fixes #329

<!-- What / Why --> <!-- Describe the request in detail. What it does and why it's being changed. --> `steps.metadata.outputs.directory` is set to `/main`, not `/`, when `package.json` is at the root of the repository. I suspect adding `target-branch` to `dependabot.yml` (#330) added a `main` segment to Dependabot PR branch names, which changed the value of `steps.metadata.outputs.directory`. By fixing this issue, we shouldn't need to routinely use stafftools to fix up template-oss Dependabot PRs. 🤞🏼 I couldn't quickly find a `bump @npmcli/template-oss` Dependabot PR for a workspace to inspect `steps.metadata.outputs.directory` and fix workspaces support. If that's important, we may want to either enable Dependabot for `npm/cli` or create a separate `template-oss-test` repo. It's not clear if Dependabot will create a PR for `workspace/test-workspace` upon our next release. ### Example Dependabot PR branch names The first PR updates just `@npmcli/template-oss`. The second updates multiple dependencies including `@npmcli/template-oss`. PR | branch name | segments | steps.metadata.outputs.directory -|-|-|- npm/agent#110 | `dependabot/npm_and_yarn/main/npmcli/template-oss-4.23.0` | 5 | `/main` npm/statusboard#877 | `dependabot/npm_and_yarn/main/dependency-updates-4de8b5bfcf` | 4 | `/` ## References <!-- Examples: Related to #0 Depends on #0 Blocked by #0 Fixes #0 Closes #0 --> Failed "Post Dependabot" run: https://github.com/npm/agent/actions/runs/9963674341/job/27530225303 Fix manually tested here: npm/agent@ef85b08 [branchNameToDirectoryName](https://github.com/dependabot/fetch-metadata/blob/ffa2dc8ffecf17d26f6a81b83f9ef5edd33ba93a/src/dependabot/update_metadata.ts#L31) Bug report: dependabot/fetch-metadata#540
