This PR adds a script to automatically generate release notes using the
new `changelog-*` labels and "This PR ..." conventions.
Usage:
```
script/release_notes.py v4.X.0
```
where `v4.X.0` is the **previous** release, i.e. the script will process
all commits *since* that tag.
This makes it reflect how we are writing release notes for 4.9.0,
including how to handle the `releases_drafts` folder and how and when to
update `RELEASES.md`.

@semorrison, does this include all the answers to the questions I asked
in our thread? I think so!

This is still WIP: the checklist for release candidates will get
finished as I do the release of `v4.7.0-rc1`.
