eldritch horrors 279e30e7ef build: replace changelog-d with local script
hacking changelog-d to support not just github but also forgejo and
gerrit is a lot more complicated than it's worth, even moreso since
the entire thing can just as well be done with ~60 lines of python.
this new script is also much cheaper to instantiate (being python),
so having it enabled in all shells is far less of a hassle.

we've also adjusted existing release notes that referenced a gerrit
cl to auto-link to the cl in question, making the diff a bit bigger

closes #176

`builtins.nixVersion` now returns a fixed value "2.18.3-lix" 558

builtins.nixVersion now returns a fixed value "2.18.3-lix". This prevents feature detection assuming that features that exist in Nix post-Lix-branch-off might exist, even though the Lix version is greater than the Nix version.

In the future, check for builtins for feature detection. If a feature cannot be detected by those means, please file a Lix bug.
