Generate a changelog for all changes from the most recent release until now.

git tag --sort=-creatordate - Get commits and merged PRs since that tag

- Categorize changes into sections: Breaking Changes, Added, Changed, Fixed, Notes
- Focus on user-facing changes (features, important bug fixes, breaking changes)
- Include PR links and contributor attribution
Output
Present the changelog in a markdown code block, ready to copy-paste into a GitHub release.
