This PR starts (belatedly) a docs repo CHANGELOG
Target publish before the major upgrade, let's include the notable impactful changes that our users need to know about
Highlight especially the updates that require actions from our users.
Add entries with links to the docs that have updates our users will need to be successful with Berkeley
Links will work after docs are live
Why keep a changelog?
To make it easier for users and contributors to see precisely what notable changes have been made between each release (or version) of the project. Docs are not versioned, but with the major upgrade, let's be sure to let our users know where they can read about the high impact technical changes.
Who needs a changelog?
People do. The users of software are human beings who care about what's in the software. When the software changes, people want to know why and how.
