Create author links in CHANGELOG file

[core23]

Feature Request

Add links to all pull request authors in the CHANGELOG.md file.

Q	A
New Feature	yes
RFC	no
BC Break	no

Summary

When looking a the release page and comparing it to the CHANGELOG file, there is a difference in the generated output.

The release description got links to the original pull request author, while the CHANGELOG file does not. AFAIK GitHub autogenerate links for all @USER text on the release page.

  and https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/shortcuts.html#project-files

NOTE: edit your post and fix it with a permalink!

@core23 I think you need to make a feature request to the used dependency first:

• https://github.com/jwage/changelog-generator

see composer.json:

• automatic-releases/composer.json

  "jwage/changelog-generator": "^1.3.0",

There is an option to show a contributor list with link, but I'll take a deeper look into the lib. Thanks.
