Add dependency review check (#1930)

# Pull Request

## 🤨 Rationale

#801 highlighted that our current use of `npm audit` is brittle. This
action should elevate any issues tracked by Github to the PR.

## 👩‍💻 Implementation

- Use the example config file from
https://github.com/actions/dependency-review-action?tab=readme-ov-file
- I'll remove the Snyk integration when this PR goes in

## 🧪 Testing

This PR only highlights the packages that are changed (the Github
Actions), but since the [Github dependency
graph](https://github.com/ni/nimble/network/dependencies) sees our other
NPM dependencies, I expect this will evaluate package.json issues when a
PR has those changes in it.

I could add known bad issues to this PR to validate, or we could just
submit this and validate over time.

## ✅ Checklist

<!--- Review the list and put an x in the boxes that apply or ~~strike
through~~ around items that don't (along with an explanation). -->

- [x] I have updated the project documentation to reflect my changes or
determined no changes are needed.
