Disable PR-free auto update, since branch protection settings prevent it.

@nelhage, auto-updates are all set up and merging away as tests pass. Wahoo!

One heads up: I had to disable the silent auto-merge feature (with this PR) because of your branch protection settings. If you let Renovate bypass them (and like, it won't mess up or otherwise merge untested commits, since it's a bot), then we can reduce the non-actionable notifications on green auto-updates.

Background: Normally, I configure Renovate to make only a branch--and not a PR--for updates it's going to attempt to auto merge. This saves everyone the non-actionable notifications and emails for updates that go through cleanly on their own. However, current branch protection settings seem to prevent Renovate from pushing a non-PR merge, even when the tip of the branch that's being merged has passed all checks. I bet if you configured the branch protection to not stop Renovate, we could re-enable the silent setting and save everyone some noise. Note that regardless, Renovate will only merge branches that are up to date with master and have passed all checks, and will create a PR to notify us if an update fails tests and requires manual intervention.

BTW, all pull requests resolved :)

I'm inclined to keep updates going through PRs for visibility and so that there's only one point responsible for enforcing branch policies -- github itself -- but maybe I'll change my mind if it's too noisy :)
