Converts the release history to the log4j-changelog format used by the other Logging Services projects:

  • the 16 releases from src/site/antora/modules/ROOT/pages/releases become src/changelog/<version> directories with one XML entry per JIRA issue (1171 entries); release dates come from the JIRA project metadata and the per-release introduction is preserved in each release template,
  • src/changelog/.2.x.x distills the commit history since 1.11.0 into changelog entries: components moved to satellite repositories, the Java 17 and Log4j API migrations, the slimmed-down flume-ng-core dependencies and the user-facing fixes. Changes to components that were later moved out of this repository are left to the changelogs of their new homes,
  • the now-obsolete log4j.changelog.skip property is removed, so the pre-site phase exports the release notes pages into the Antora site.

Overlaps with #475 only in the three shared FreeMarker templates, which are identical on both branches.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Convert the 16 releases from the JIRA-generated release pages into
`src/changelog`, one XML entry per JIRA issue, so the release notes
are generated by `log4j-changelog` like in the other Logging Services
projects. Release dates come from the JIRA project metadata and the
per-release introduction is kept in each release template.

The `.2.x.x` directory distills the commit history since 1.11.0:
components moved to satellite repositories, the Java 17 and Log4j API
migrations, the slimmed-down `flume-ng-core` dependencies and the
user-facing fixes. Changes to components that were later moved out of
this repository are left to the changelogs of their new homes.

The hand-maintained pages under `releases/` duplicate what
`log4j-changelog` now generates. The news page links now point to the
per-version anchors of the generated page.
