reconsider using github_changelog_generator for CHANGELOG-RELEASE.md, because our manually created changelog is a lot better

In .ci/github_release_script.sh , we use github_changelog_generator to make a changelog.

I'm not positive where these changelogs wind up, but I have seen them in the wild

I suggest we should use our manually generated CHANGELOG.md instead, because the dependabot commits have long comments that have nothing to do with git-secret proper and make it difficult to see the actual changes version to version.

@sobolevn can you explain what's going on here?
Digging more it looks like it's commented-out in https://github.com/sobolevn/git-secret/blob/master/.github/workflows/release-ci.yml

I don't think this is being used any more according to my recent spelunk through the code
