  1. Auto-bump version number in generated release notes

    We are using Release Drafter[^1] to automatically write our release
    notes.
    
    Before, Release Drafter was configured to increment the version number
    at the patch level, regardless of what was included in the release
    notes. For example, if the current version is 3.17.3, the draft of the
    next release would assume a version number of 3.17.4.
    
    With this commit, Release Drafter will now bump the version number based
    on the concents of the release. A patch bump is the default, but if
    there is a new feature or breaking change in the release, it will now
    recommend a minor bump.
    
    This commit also modifies the release notes template to add a link to
    the full diff of the release on GitHub.
