Small adjustments to changelog limiting
Sort the changelog entries by date first. I was hoping this wasn't
necessary since both legacy createrepo and createrepo_c use a specific
order, but I discovered that Oracle Linux used to use reverse
chronological order. I have no idea what tool they used but lets play
it safe for now
