changelog-d: init / justStaticExecutables

[roberth]

Motivation

changelog-d had an unnecessarily large runtime closure.

Description of changes

• Use justStaticExecutables
  • Make changelog-d a top level package
• Refactor

The combined PR diff doesn't understand the file move, so it's easier to review individual commits.

Things done

  • x86_64-linux
  • aarch64-linux
  • x86_64-darwin
  • aarch64-darwin
• For non-Linux: Is sandboxing enabled in nix.conf? (See Nix manual)
  • sandbox = relaxed
  • sandbox = true

  • and/or package tests
  • or, for functions and "core" functionality, tests in lib/tests or pkgs/test

• Tested compilation of all packages that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review rev HEAD". Note: all changes have to be committed, also see nixpkgs-review usage
• Tested basic functionality of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
• 23.11 Release Notes (or backporting 23.05 Release notes)
  • (Package updates) Added a release notes entry if the change is major or breaking

  • (Module addition) Added a release notes entry if adding a new NixOS module
• Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Technically this is a minor breaking change, since e.g. haskellPackages.changelog-d.tests doesn't exist anymore. Same for updateScript and the -git- version suffix.

This is fairly internal however, so I guess it might be fine.

Otherwise this looks good!

Yeah, you'd have to use this git-only project as a library to find these changes. Basically you'd be asking for it.
