Subject: [PATCH] Auto-label PRs and use native release notes generation

Replaces the empty release body with GitHub's native --generate-notes
output, made useful by two new pieces of automation:

- .github/workflows/label-pr.yml runs on PR open/sync and inspects any
  changeset files added in the PR. PRs with no changeset get the
  no-changelog label; PRs with a changeset get an Area: @shopify/...
  label derived from the packages in the changeset frontmatter.
  Multi-package changesets fold to Area: @shopify/cli.
- .github/release.yml configures --generate-notes to exclude PRs
  labeled no-changelog and to bucket the rest into App / Theme / CLI /
  Other categories using the area labels.

Fork PRs are skipped by the labeler (read-only token); they fall into
the Other category in release notes until labeled by hand.
