Wanderer-meilisearch is in CrashLoopBackOff after Renovate PR #32 bumped getmeili/meilisearch v1.11.3 -> v1.45.2. Meilisearch index format isn't forward-compatible across that range — the engine refuses to open the existing v1.11.x index on a v1.45 binary.

This PR:

  1. Reverts the manifest to v1.11.3 so wanderer search recovers immediately (data on the PVC is preserved and v1.11.x-compatible).
  2. Adds a packageRule with dependencyDashboardApproval: true for getmeili/meilisearch, so any future meilisearch PR is held until you click the dashboard checkbox after planning the dump/restore migration per Meilisearch docs.

Renovate PR #32 (merged 2026-06-06 09:30) bumped getmeili/meilisearch
from v1.11.3 to v1.45.2 under the default-allow + 3-day stability rule.
Meilisearch's on-disk index format is NOT forward-compatible across
that range; wanderer-meilisearch went into CrashLoopBackOff with:

  Error: Your database version (1.11.3) is incompatible with your
  current engine version (1.45.2).

The PVC still holds the v1.11.x index, so the safest immediate recovery
is reverting the image tag. Wanderer's search starts working again the
moment the pod comes up on v1.11.3.

To prevent recurrence, add a packageRule that holds ALL meilisearch
updates behind the dashboard's "Pending Approval" checkbox via
`dependencyDashboardApproval: true`. PRs won't be opened until the
user explicitly approves them on the dashboard, so the version bump
can be planned around the documented dump/restore migration path
(https://www.meilisearch.com/docs/learn/update_and_migration/updating).
