Add option to avoid GitHub backreferencing the PR #29

Closes #26

niv-update-action changelog in a GitHub PR contains references (in the form of owner/repo#PR_number), which GitHub nicely turns into links. However, what GitHub also does is it creates a backreference in those PRs back to the PR created by niv-update-action. This pollutes the upstream projects. Thus, this change adds an option to use a redirector service in order to still have links, but avoid having backreferences.
