Prior to this commit all CHANGELOG.md files contained an `### unreleased` section list all pending changes in changie fragments. The idea at the time was to make it easy to understand what changes would be present in an upcoming release. In practice these sections were never referred to as most developers would rely on `git log`. Worse yet they were the primary cause of backports requiring manual intervention. As the number of release branches has grown, so has the frequency of backporting and the frustration of needing to manually re-run `task generate`. This commit removes the unreleased section with the primary goal of reducing the toil of backporting commits.
