changelog script: do not use compare about github_helper

@rullzer Do you have two example commits?

Try Nextcloud 15 and 16 - if you can get us a full changelog for https://nextcloud.com/changelog/ then that would be awesome 😸

THat's not really gonna happen. Because this would be a total mess of what is ported where. We had some stuff being ported over between branches. Also it doesn't really make sense to have a that long list. It is basically 600 to 800 links ... IMO nothing that is properly more readable nor more valuable than to go directly to GitHub and search there.

Allright, so if you're sure this is only a problem for cases where there are more than 250 commits, aka major releases, I'm good - there will the never be a full changelog for those, but that's fine with me. I will update our changelog with that notion.

Note that I had the impression from talking to Roeland that this can also be an issue for minor releases, but I might have mis-understood that. Re-open if that is the case...

we rarely have minor releases with 250 commits ... I could be wrong, but I doubt that.

The problem: I would need to change the script heavily and currently I don't have time to do so.
