Fixes the issue raised in
sagemath/website#480 (comment)

I manually edited the release
https://github.com/sagemath/sage/releases/tag/10.5 generated by an
workflow implemented in sagemath/website#480 to
correct the changelog https://github.com/sagemath/website/blob/master/sr
c/changelogs/sage-10.5.txt, which is now in good shape. But see, for
example, https://github.com/sagemath/sage/releases/tag/10.4 that
contains all changes in betas and rcs.

This PR is for automatic generation of a release that contains only
changes from the last release.
