A Robo task for generating comprehensive release notes from GitHub PRs and issues.

• Automatic PR Detection: Extracts pull request numbers from git commit messages using multiple merge strategies
• GitHub API Integration: Fetches detailed information about PRs and their associated issues
• Smart Grouping: Groups pull requests by their related issues for better organization
• Contributor Tracking: Automatically tracks contributors from both PR authors and issue reporters
• Code Statistics: Provides statistics on lines changed and files modified
• Flexible Tag Comparison: Compare from any tag or automatically use the latest tag
• Rate Limiting: Respects GitHub API rate limits with intelligent batching
