Changes to the release-drafter template:

  1. Bump the minor version when a release contains new features, enhancements, or deprecations. Previously only the feature label triggered a minor increment, so the current draft resolved to v0.19.1; with this fix we should see v0.20.0 on the Releases page.
  2. Add a replacer mapping @Chuan1937 to Xingchen He, since he has been active over the past few months.
  3. Add a "New Contributors" section to the release template, using the $NEW_CONTRIBUTORS variable added in release-drafter v7.6.0. See the changelog of release-drafter v7.6.0 for a preview of the new section.

I don't think we want to keep the "New Contributors" section in the final changelog, but it's a good reminder to check whether the upcoming release has any new contributors, and whether they have been added to AUTHORS.md (see also #4839).
