What this PR does / why we need it:
This PR adds a template to the repository to use with auto-generated release notes from GitHub. In the release notes for https://github.com/containers/buildah/releases/tag/v1.35.0 everything is put in one list, which makes it hard to differentiate actual changes from dependency updates.
This template puts the dependency updates in a separate paragraph, causing the release notes to look cleaner. This only works when PRs are labelled correctly, which is the case for renovate, but #5184 for example would need the
dependencies
label.How to verify it
Try to auto-generate release notes, but it only works after merging.
Which issue(s) this PR fixes:
