conventional-changelog preset packages v8+ are ESM-only and use a new config API shape (parser/writer/commits/whatBump instead of parserOpts/writerOpts/gitRawCommitsOpts/recommendedBumpOpts). This adds dynamic import() fallback for ESM modules and normalizes the new API shape to the legacy format expected by conventional-changelog-core and conventional-recommended-bump. Closes lerna#4021

Sorry, something went wrong.
Node.js 22+ can require() ESM modules without throwing ERR_REQUIRE_ESM,
but returns a module namespace object { __esModule, default, ... }
instead of the default export directly. Extract .default when this
interop wrapper is detected.

Summary
import()fallback whenrequire()fails withERR_REQUIRE_ESM(Node 20), enabling support for ESM-only conventional-changelog presets (v8+)__esModulemodule namespace objects returned byrequire()of ESM modules on Node 22+ (whererequire()succeeds but returns a namespace wrapper instead of the default export)parser/writer/commits/whatBump) to the legacy format (parserOpts/writerOpts/gitRawCommitsOpts/conventionalChangelog/recommendedBumpOpts) expected byconventional-changelog-core@5andconventional-recommended-bump@7Reproduction
conventional-changelog-conventionalcommitsv8+ (and other preset packages) switched to:"type": "module") — on Node 20,require()throwsERR_REQUIRE_ESM; on Node 22+,require()succeeds but returns a module namespace object{ __esModule, default, ... }instead of the default export{ parser, writer, commits, whatBump }instead of{ parserOpts, writerOpts, gitRawCommitsOpts, recommendedBumpOpts, conventionalChangelog }This caused Lerna to either fail to load the preset entirely (ESM error) or produce degraded changelogs (missing version links, missing "Bug Fixes" section headings, missing "closes" references).
