ci: Renovate — commit via platform API (fix repository-changed abort)#35

RENOVATE_PLATFORM_COMMIT=enabled. On repos whose CI reacts to the pushed branch,
the local-git-push path trips Renovate's base-SHA guard ("repository has changed
during renovation - aborting") right after creating the first branch. Committing
through the GitHub API sidesteps it.

Tip
Approved — minimal, well-scoped fix for a real Renovate race condition
✅ Checked
RENOVATE_PLATFORM_COMMITis a static literal — no injection surface- No permission changes to the workflow
- External action (
renovatebot/github-action) already pinned to full commit SHA - No internal whuppi/ci refs in this file, so self-check will not flag anything
- Conventional commit title matches repo conventions

On pdf, the live Renovate run aborts with
repository has changed during renovationright after creating its first branch, even though the base branch is verifiably stable — the classic self-hosted git-push race when a repo's CI reacts to the pushed branch.RENOVATE_PLATFORM_COMMIT=enabledcommits through the GitHub API instead. Wrapper tracks @main, so it applies immediately.
