changesets/action copies a CHANGELOG.md section into the release as it stands,
so a whole release rendered as one bullet behind its commit hash, with
`### Thanks` as literal text and "Minor Changes" as the only real heading.
The Release workflow now rebuilds the body from that section: Thanks first,
then What's new with a heading per change, Fixes, Also in this release and a
compare link, with "Behaviour change:" and "Breaking:" in bold. The release is
titled `Codeman <x.y.z>`; the tag stays `codeman@<x.y.z>`, which is what the
updater and the update toast read.
This cannot be written into CHANGELOG.md instead: `### <Type> Changes` is
hardcoded upstream, and a `## ` line would end the section for changesets/action
and versionSection(). So the changelog keeps its format and the toast is
unaffected. npm has already published when the step runs, so a formatter failure
leaves the changesets text with a warning and the retag still happens.
SECTION_LABELS is now shared with whats-new.mjs so the toast and the page agree
on what counts as a headline. docs/releasing.md records the changeset shape.

`changeset version` prefixes the first line of every committed changeset
with its commit ("- d18deed: **Lead.** text"), so a changeset that opens
with its bold lead-in, which is the shape the release notes ask for, was
never matched in a changesets-bot release. The pattern now allows that
prefix.
The release notes also put group labels in bold at the start of a line:
"**Fixes.**" and "**Fixes applied while landing.**" (1.41.1, 1.41.0,
1.35.0, 1.33.3). Those were taken as highlights, so a release with few
features announced "... · Fixes applied while landing". They are skipped
like the Thanks block. Tests cover both, and a release with no lead-ins.
