The previous dependabot configuration used the path of the git submodule to limit updates to drivers-evergreen-tools, as we don't want to update libmongoc and libmongocrypt to latest commits. However, this does not work for submodules as dependabot looks for the
.gitmodulesfile in the indicated directory. Instead, we can useallowto limit the dependencies to update (or alternatively, exclude some usingignore). The dependency name in the config file is the name of the submodule from.gitmodules.
