chore(changelog): automate CHANGELOG + release notes from commits via cliff (Option A)

CHANGELOG.md is now auto-generated from commit messages by git-cliff in
the release workflow. Hand-edits below the static header will be wiped on
the next tag.

Workflow (`.github/workflows/release.yml`):
  - On tag push (`v[0-9]+.[0-9]+.[0-9]+`):
    1. Render GitHub Release body: `git-cliff --latest --strip header`
       → just the per-version section, no SemVer preamble repeat
    2. Regenerate full CHANGELOG.md: `git-cliff` (default = all tags)
       → preserves header + all historical sections
    3. Commit CHANGELOG.md back to master with `[skip ci]` marker
    4. Publish GitHub Release with the latest-only body

Template (`cliff.toml`):
  - `[changelog].header` now holds the SemVer preamble + CalVer→SemVer
    mapping table (preserved across regens; stripped from GitHub Release
    bodies via `--strip header`).
  - `body` template now renders the **full commit message** (subject as
    bold bullet, body indented below) instead of just the first line.
    Rich narrative I write in commit message bodies (tables, validation
    numbers, before/after diffs) now flows into both CHANGELOG.md and the
    GitHub Release page from the same source.
  - Per-release Pin/Diff footer guarded with `{% if version %}` so the
    Unreleased section doesn't emit empty links.

CHANGELOG.md replaced with the auto-gen output. Past hand-written tables
and phase breakdowns are replaced by the corresponding commit messages
(those were already rich for commits that mattered — v0.3.1 soak-helper
fix has its Before/After table in the commit body and renders fine).

Going forward: just write rich commit messages and tag. Both surfaces
update automatically. No hand-edit of CHANGELOG.md required.

Update flow: write rich commit message bodies → tag → CI regenerates this file
and the GitHub Release notes from the same source. Don't hand-edit below the
header — your changes will be overwritten on the next tag.
**Versioning:** SemVer in `0.x` — treat any minor bump as potentially breaking
until `1.0`. Past CalVer tags (`v2026.05.09`, `v2026.05.10`) are preserved for
history; SemVer takes over from `v0.3.0` onward.
| CalVer tag | SemVer equivalent | Date |
|---|---|---|
| `v2026.05.09` | (≈ v0.1.0) | 2026-05-09 — first tagged release |
