Subject: [PATCH 2/2] refactor: replace `matchPackageNames` to `matchDepNames`

Here's a breakdown of their preferences:

* **`matchDepNames` is generally preferred for clarity and accuracy.**
    * `matchDepNames` was introduced specifically to match against the `depName` field, which typically represents the "short" or primary name of a dependency (e.g., `react`, `lodash`).
    * Using `matchDepNames` makes your Renovate configuration more explicit and easier to understand, as its name directly reflects its intended behavior.

* **`matchPackageNames` has historical baggage and can be misleading.**
    * Historically, `matchPackageNames` in Renovate also matched against the `depName` by default, despite its name suggesting it would match the `packageName` field. This was due to an earlier implementation decision.
    * While `matchPackageNames` might still match `depName` in many current setups (for backward compatibility), it can be confusing and lead to unexpected behavior if you're expecting it to match the `packageName` (which is often a more complete or specific identifier, like `org.apache.maven:maven-core`).
