This is a failsafe against Renovate bugs and potentially also mistakes on the user’s part. Before deleting/pruning any branches, Renovate will rename the PR’s title so that it should not block future PRs.
Closes#989
GitHub provides a tempting “Update branch” button whenever a branch is out of date with master, but the problem was that this then made us flag the branch as modified and hence unrebaseable, so the user would be stuck with keeping it update themselves from then on. With this feature, we ignore the “web-flow” committer when calculcating if there has been only one author.
This feature adds a new behaviour to Renovate, where it will now add a comment to any existing closed PRs that are "blocking" currently valid updates. A new API function "ensureComment" has been added, its purpose is so we can ensure there exists only one comment with a certain subject/heading. This lets us prevent duplicates as well as update existing, without having to keep state about it. ensureComment needs porting to gitlab, but should be quite easy.
Adds paginated results capability for gitlab and enables it for getFileList. This should enable all files when using APIv4.

* refactor: replace github code search with getTree/manual search (#944)
Previously Renovate was using the GitHub code search API once for each filename we are looking for. Instead, we now retrieve a list of files in the repository and cache it so it can be reused for filename matches.
Closes#939
* fix: use recursive=true
* fix: reset fileList for every repo (github)
* feat: implement findFilePaths on gitlab (#945)
* refactor: do not check manually for root package.json
* fix: reset fileList for every repo (gitlab)
* fix tests

Closes#939
This feature means that you can configure branches/PRs to automerge, but if status checks fail (preventing automerge) then you can still get assigneed the PR to take action. Previously such PRs remained unassigned because we do not assign automerging PRs by default, to reduce noise.
Closes#722
By default, Renovate will now continue *updating* - but not creating - branches even if off-schedule. This applies to features such as (a) rebasing branches if master changes, (b) updating if new version comes, (c) creating PRs if tests pass, (d) automerging. It is planned that (b) will be configurable in a future feature. To disable this behaviour altogether, set updateNotScheduled to false.
Closes#879
