mark commits as fixing something within series #72

Perceived Problem

Sometimes fixes are pushed that address bugs within a series
When generating the final changelog, these commits should not be included
Since they don't fix anything from the previous stable release, but only within the pre-releases of the series
Meaning that from a stable-using user point of view, nothing was fixed, and this is just confusing noise to have in the changelog

Solutions

Support a new conventional commit custom footer
```
fix: blah

series fix: true
```
Support new fix type:
```
fix-series: blah
```
or maybe one word:
```
fix-series: blah
```
Maybe a raw imperative statement to remove anything from the changelog:
```
fix: blah

changelog: no
```
