…k-Simulacrum Enable GitHub Releases synchronization This PR enables the triagebot feature to automatically populate [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/releases) for this repository based on the changelog. See rust-lang/triagebot#811 for the implementation of this feature on triagebot's side, and more insights on how it works. Note: once this lands people subscribed to the ~~firehose~~ rust-lang/rust repository will probably receive a ton of notifications for all the releases being created, but this should be a one-time thing. r? @Mark-Simulacrum cc @rust-lang/release

This PR adds a new handler to triagebot that synchronizes the GitHub Releases with the changelog present inside a repository itself. It's meant to be used for rustc, but it's designed to be easily extensible. Namely, I want to implement support for keep a changelog to synchronize rustwide's changelog in a future PR.
The handler can be enabled by adding this snippet to a
triagebot.toml:The handler will run when either a new tag is pushed, or when a new commit on the
changelog-branchbranch is pushed. It will create releases named"{project-name} {tag}"with the relevant section of the changelog as their body. It will also automatically update old releases if the changelog was updated after the fact.The only supported format right now is
rustc, which maps to rustc's RELEASES.md file. It's possible to add new formats by changing thesrc/changelogs/module, so this handle can be used for other Rust projects too.You can see the result of running this in my fork of rustc.
This PR is best reviewed commit-by-commit.
