release.yml warned that 0.1.1-beta.1 had no CHANGELOG section. It was right,
so here it is.

The entry says what the version actually is — nothing in the plugin changed;
git diff git-stats-v0.1.0 git-stats-v0.1.1-beta.1 -- src dist is empty, and only
the repository.url / homepage metadata moved with the repo rename.

It also records why it exists, because a reader who finds a beta containing no
changes deserves the reason: the release path had never been run for this package,
and running it is the only way to find out whether it works. It didn't — the npm
deployment environment admitted only v* tags, the scheme this repo used before it
became a monorepo, so the publish job was rejected before its first step, with no
failing step and no log to read. Fixed by also allowing *-v*.

The entry states the version is deprecated on npm; holding this PR until that is
actually done, so the changelog is true when it lands.
