When the tools-deps-update workflow finds a new version of a dependency, peter-evans/create-pull-request force-pushes the Action's branch, discarding any commits a collaborator pushed to the existing PR to fix the update. Before running the updater, check whether the open PR for the Action's branch contains commits not authored by the bot, and if so skip the update for that dependency instead of overwriting them.

When a new version of a dependency comes out, it runs
create pull requeston the existingactions/tools-update-<id>branch. That force-pushes the branch and throws away any commits a collaborator pushed to fix the update, as happened in #66397 and #66146.This adds a first step that checks the open PR for that branch. If any commit isn't authored by
github-bot@iojs.org, the rest of the job is skipped for that dependency and a notice links to the PR. If there's no open PR, or it only has bot commits, the update runs as before.
