Drop dependency of dist target on ChangeLog

Browse source 
We no longer write manual ChangeLog entries since they are
auto-generated at release time.  Drop dependency of the `make dist`
target on the file and document the fact that the latest ChangeLog
entries can be read in the highest numbered ChangeLog.N file in
ChangeLog.old.

The ChangeLog.old/ChangeLog.20 file for 2.31 will thus be generated
just before tagging a release.

* It is no longer necessary to have recent Linux kernel headers to build
working (non-stub) system call wrappers.
* The ChangeLog file is no longer present in the toplevel directory of the
source tree. ChangeLog files are located in the ChangeLog.old directory as
ChangeLog.N where the highest N has the latest entries.
