nopeitsnothing f71e5e2a28 fix(changelog): prevent history dump and filter noise commits
commits_since(): when no prior tag exists, scope to commits not yet on
origin/main via merge-base instead of walking the entire history. This
is what caused the v2.0.1 entry to contain every commit back to project
inception.

categorise(): replace the minimal skip pattern with a compiled NOISE
regex that also drops:
  - numbered series commits (3/8, 7/8, etc.)
  - vague WIP messages (Tweaking, Moving some, Still broken, pt2...)
  - one-word infrastructure fixes (Fix workflow, Fix path, Fix README)
  - oops commits (Forgot to, Revert "...")
  - joke messages (One job to rule them all)
