Subject: Add a script to update the debian changelog for non-Debian systems
 (#10778)

When releasing 1.42.0 with @Azrenbeth and talking with @clokep yesterday I realised doing the dch incantations related to releasing Synapse wasn't trivial on eg a macOS system, so this is a script to run in a Debian container to make things a bit easier.
