Personally, I don't like much surefire current in the website such
https://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/jira-changes.html
(as there is no history and it's called "JIRA Report" which doesn't
help much)
I find GH release notes very handy (they can be generated
automatically and will be in the dependabot PRs of consumers).
But if we want them on the website, why not grab the data from GH releases?
Currently, most of the plugin's website doesn't have any release notes
or change history available.
