ChangeLog housekeeping.
Archive old `ChangeLog` file. We no longer write ChangeLog entries manually; instead, the file will be created from commit messages (which should be formatted in GNU's ChangeLog style) by a call to gitlog-to-changelog --format='%B%n' or something similar (this script is part of the 'gnulib' repository).

-contributing
-------------
-
-If you want to contribute to FreeType it is recommended to install the
-`git-merge-changelog` program – we use a `ChangeLog` file, which often
-prevents simple merging due to conflicts. Most GNU/Linux
-distributions have a package for this program; otherwise you can
-install it via the 'gnulib' git repository. Detailed instructions can
-be found at the beginning of
-
- https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/tree/lib/git-merge-changelog.c
-
-To make it actually work, add to file `.git/config` in the FreeType
-git repository (or to your `$HOME/.gitconfig` file) the lines
-
- [merge "merge-changelog"]
- name = GNU-style ChangeLog merge driver
- driver = /usr/local/bin/git-merge-changelog %O %A %B
