Subject: [PATCH] ci: remove automerge label workflow in favor of GitHub native
 auto-merge (#544)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

Removes the custom `automerge.yml` workflow and its `automerge` label
flow. GitHub now provides native auto-merge that merges a PR
automatically once required CI checks pass, making the custom workflow
redundant.

## Changes

- Delete `.github/workflows/automerge.yml`

## Follow-up (manual, outside this PR)

- Enable **Settings → General → Allow auto-merge**.
- Add a branch protection rule requiring the CI check so native
auto-merge waits for it.
- Remove the now-unused `MERGE_TOKEN` secret if nothing else uses it.
- Use **Enable auto-merge** per PR (or `gh pr merge --auto --squash`).
