Make the changelog more user friendly

The changelog is a really important document for users. But at the moment it’s hard to find the information I’m looking for (I just want to see new features that have been added). Look how big the list is for 1.3.0, and how hard it is to find just the new features:

It would be much easier to scan if the items were ordered: put all of the new features in one section (I guess everyone wants to read this), next put changes, and finally, fixes. If a user isn’t aware of anything being broken, they can probably skip reading the list of fixes.

The bigger issue is it’s great to see so many fixes and changes, so thanks to the developers!
