Add automatic changelog generation to Debian package build

Browse source 
The build script now automatically generates a proper Debian changelog from
git history between version tags. Features:

- Proper Debian changelog format with version, urgency, and timestamp
- Automatic version detection using git describe --tags
- Change list from previous version tag to current commit
- Compressed storage as per Debian standards (changelog.gz)
- Fallback logic for initial releases when no previous tags exist

The changelog is installed to /usr/share/doc/skyview/changelog.gz following
Debian packaging best practices.
