chore(release): include build/refactor notes in changelog (#1800)

João Pereirarequested to merge
fix/restore-deps-changelog-1800 into master

Related to Restore dependency version bump entries to CHAN... (#1800 - closed)

Problem

Dependency version bump entries are missing from recent release notes, which makes incident investigation and regression analysis harder.

Root Cause

Changelog generation in CI uses the default conventionalcommits preset, where build entries are hidden. Renovate dependency bumps use build(deps), so they are filtered out of the generated CHANGELOG. refactor entries are also hidden by default.

Change

  • add a shared conventional-changelog config
  • unhide build entries (matching Renovate)
  • unhide refactor entries in a dedicated section
  • use the shared config in semantic-release and CI changelog generation

Rationale

Keeping release note generation consistent and including build(deps) and refactor commits restores missing context while matching existing commit types.
