Mike Ryan 525f80d6df fix(package-rules): respect each dep update's fetchChangeLogs value (#42671)
* fix(package-rules): respect each dep update's fetchChangeLogs value

Ensures that changelog fetching respects each dep update's specific `fetchChangeLogs` value.

Given the following renovate configuration: https://github.com/justfalter/renovate-test-packagerules-fetchchangelogs/blob/fb9e070d0f9a4d6fc742c4a22edee2c9b055fece/.github/renovate.json5#L42-L61

My expectation is that Renovate would never fetch changelogs for `lodash`. However, when grouped
together with `chalk` and `tar` under `group of unrelated packages`, we find that
renovate fetches changelogs all packages, including `lodash`.

Before this change (`lodash` logs fetched):
- Run: https://github.com/justfalter/renovate-test-packagerules-fetchchangelogs/actions/runs/24480887343/job/71544876893
- (wrong) lodash, tar, and chalk all have changelogs: https://github.com/justfalter/renovate-test-packagerules-fetchchangelogs/pull/9

After this change, the PR created by renovate only contains changelogs for `chalk` and `tar`, but not `lodash`:

- Run: https://github.com/justfalter/renovate-test-packagerules-fetchchangelogs/actions/runs/24481738609/job/71547632550
- (expected) lodash does not have changelogs, but tar and chalk have changelogs: https://github.com/justfalter/renovate-test-packagerules-fetchchangelogs/pull/10

----

We can further explore the effectiveness of the change with a more elaborate configuration, where the top-level has `fetchChangeLogs: off`: https://github.com/justfalter/renovate-test-packagerules-fetchchangelogs/blob/0ea69c18b9171e38c56440c762faa68109d3d0d5/.github/renovate.json5#L41-L95

- (wrong) lodash, tar, and chalk all have changelogs: https://github.com/justfalter/renovate-test-packagerules-fetchchangelogs/pull/15
- (expected) typescript (inherited `off`) does not have changelogs: https://github.com/justfalter/renovate-test-packagerules-fetchchangelogs/pull/17
