Subject: [PATCH] feat: Schedule Renovate to run only between 2-4 AM

Add schedule configuration to reduce resource usage by limiting
Renovate runs to a nightly maintenance window.

- schedule: 'after 2am and before 4am'
- timezone: Europe/Amsterdam

Renovate will now only check for updates during this window instead
of running continuously.
