Subject: [PATCH] chore: group related packages in Dependabot config

- Add entity-framework group for Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.*
- Add aspnetcore group for Microsoft.AspNetCore.*
- Add fluentvalidation group for FluentValidation.*

This prevents dependency conflicts by ensuring related packages
update together in a single PR instead of separate PRs.
