ci(release): keep the changelog out of a protected branch

main is protected (enable_push: false, empty whitelist), so @semantic-release/git's commit-back is rejected by the pre-receive hook -- and it would be rejected *after* the tag was pushed, leaving a tagged release the run then reports as failed. Found by trying to push this branch to main. Whitelisting the CI user was the alternative and is declined: it weakens a protection someone set deliberately and lets a bot push to main without the checks every human PR has to pass. So the release page is the changelog. The changelog plugin now writes a gitignored .release-notes.md, which exists only to carry the notes into gitea-release.sh without interpolating them into a shell command, and CHANGELOG.md is a signpost -- a file claiming to be a changelog while silently never updating is worse than no file. Tags are not protected, so the tag push is unaffected.

# Changelog
|
||||
|
||||
The changelog is the releases page:
|
||||
|
||||
<https://git.ljones.me/yonlu/yellowjacket/releases>
|
||||
|
||||
Every release there is generated from the Conventional Commits it
|
||||
contains, by `.gitea/workflows/release.yml` on merge to `main`. Each one
|
||||
carries its notes as its body, grouped by change type, with a link to the
|
||||
commit behind every line.
|
||||
|
||||
**This file is not generated and is not a copy of that.** `main` is a
|
||||
protected branch, so nothing pushes a changelog commit back to it — and a
|
||||
file that claimed to be a changelog while silently never updating would
|
||||
be worse than no file at all. `make release-dry` prints what the next
|
||||
merge would release.
|
||||
|
||||
History before `v0.0.1` is in `git log`. The versions before it were cut
|
||||
by hand and are not on the releases page; the entries this file used to
|
||||
hold were generated against a GitHub remote this project no longer has,
|
||||
and every link in them was dead.
