CompatHelper PRs failing with force_latest_compatible_version due to Julia version constraints

I just tried it and then rebased the dependabot PR, same issue.
What’s even weirder is that it’s a docs Project update, but it’s the tests that fail.

By default (<code>continue_on_error = false</code>) execution errors are re-thrown by Literate (as before). If <code>continue_on_error = true</code> is set the error is used as the block result and execution continues with following blocks.
