docs: seed CHANGELOG.md (Keep-a-Changelog format)

[hyperpolymath]

Closes Row-2 Phase 3 of the 2026-05-26 estate tech-debt audit chain for this repo. The 2026-05-26 documentation-debt audit (hyperpolymath/standards#197) flagged that 180 of 279 estate repos lacked a CHANGELOG.md (65% gap) — this seed closes that finding here.

The seed:

• Uses Keep-a-Changelog format with an [Unreleased] section.
• Buckets the most recent 100 commits by conventional-commit prefix (feat/fix/refactor/docs/ci/build) into Added/Fixed/Changed/ Documentation/CI sections.
• References standards#206's changelog-reusable.yml + the canonical templates/cliff.toml for full-regeneration via git-cliff.

The file is initial — the maintainer can adopt changelog-reusable.yml in this repo's CI to keep it auto-regenerated, or regenerate manually.
