Drop dependency of dist target on ChangeLog
We no longer write manual ChangeLog entries since they are auto-generated at release time. Drop dependency of the `make dist` target on the file and document the fact that the latest ChangeLog entries can be read in the highest numbered ChangeLog.N file in ChangeLog.old. The ChangeLog.old/ChangeLog.20 file for 2.31 will thus be generated just before tagging a release. Reviewed-by: Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu> Reviewed-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com>
