Nested Changelogs for updated version dependencies #70

This is a recurring feature request and a hard requirement of where we want to go with regards to our internal process.

In summary, we want to be able to mark specific dependencies, that will have their respective changelogs nested in the project's changelog when their version is bumped. For the unmarked ones, a link to their CHANGELOG.md diff should be included instead.

There are many details to be defined and a spec will probably be needed for this. Also for nested changelogs to be meaningful we'll most likely have to move to shrinkwrapped dependencies (yarn is also under discussion)

@jviotti Sounds like this will be useful for Etcher too?
