This updates `changelog.py` to write the (non-internal) changes to the
relevant release notes file directly, rather than requiring a human to
copy-paste it in. For now, the file is just mutated, without committing.
The internal changes are still printed for the human to deal with.

For instance, `pants run src/python/pants_release/changelog.py --
--prior 2.18.0.dev1 --new 2.18.0.dev2` adds a new section to
`src/python/pants/notes/2.18.x.md`:

 ### New Features
```

This also moves it into the new `pants_release` root, adds some basic
tests, and has it fetch the relevant branch directly, rather than
prompting the user to do so. It also pulls out a `git.py` support module
with helpers for exec-ing `git` as an external process.

The commits are individually reviewable.

This is a step towards automating more of the "start release" process,
per #19279. After this
core refactoring of the functionality, I think the next step is to
combine it with the CONTRIBUTORS update and version bumping, and then
after that string it all together on CI so that starting a release is
fully automated.
