Codeman maintainer e9b2ecd552 ci(release): turn the GitHub release body into a readable page
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.
