build: fix ChangeLog generation in external build directory
When gitlog-to-changelog is run in a build directory that is neither the same
as, nor a subdirectory of, the source directory, it needs a --srcdir option or
it will fail to generate the changelog. For instance
$ git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/automake.git
…
$ (cd automake && ./bootstrap)
$ mkdir b-automake
$ cd b-automake
$ ../automake/configure
…
$ make dist
…
GEN ChangeLog
