Replace the Junior-specific PR body parsing with GitHub's Commit.authors field, which resolves Co-authored-by trailers to GitHub logins. Add a hide_authors release config option to keep PRs in the changelog without crediting specific authors, such as bots. Co-Authored-By: Jan Michael Auer <1433023+jan-auer@users.noreply.github.com>

Render bot authors after human authors, as in "by @alice with @some-bot", so PRs a bot opens on someone's behalf credit both. Bot PR authors come from the GraphQL author type or REST user type; bot co-authors from their [bot] login suffix. Co-Authored-By: Burak Yigit Kaya <126780+BYK@users.noreply.github.com>
Rebase merges put several commits of one PR on the base branch. Merge the co-authors of all of them into the deduplicated entry instead of keeping only the newest commit's.

Default hidden authors to an empty set, document that a sole bot author is credited on its own, and explain why the PR author __typename is queried.

Changelog entries only credited the PR author. When a bot opens a PR on someone's behalf, the bot gets the credit and the person who asked for the work doesn't.
Entries now also credit co-authors. Craft reads GitHub's GraphQL
Commit.authorsfield, which turnsCo-authored-bytrailers into GitHub logins when the trailer email belongs to a GitHub account. This adds one field to the existing batched commit query. For squash merges, the squash commit carries the PR's trailers. Merge commits have no trailers, so they keep crediting only the PR author, and the merger is never credited. The PR changelog preview reads the authors of the PR's own commits, since that PR isn't merged yet.People are credited first, then bots after
with. For example, a PR opened bysentry-junior[bot]with aCo-authored-bytrailer forBYKrenders asby @BYK with @sentry-junior. Bot PR authors are detected by account type (GraphQL__typename, RESTuser.type). Bot co-authors are detected by their[bot]login suffix. Logins are compared case-insensitively and without the[bot]suffix, because GitHub's APIs return bot logins both with and without it. When there are more than three people, the list collapses to@a, @b and N others.There's also a new optional
hide_authorssetting in.github/release.yml. It keeps a PR in the changelog but removes the listed accounts from its credit. That's different fromexclude.authors, which drops the PR entirely.via @jan-auer, @BYK.
