inaccurate auto-generated `Bugfixes` from `Version 0.19.2 released` blogpost

not sure what process generates Bugfixes entries (is it checked in somewhere?) but it has inaccurate entries, eg:

  • https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/9216 (still open)
  • https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/9295 (still open) (there could be more)

the issue is probably that a commit marked "fix #9295" was backported to a release, and then the issue was reopened because it was discovered afterward that the issue wasn't actually solved.

proposal

the script could be updated to check whether the issue in github is still open

Here is the script https://github.com/dom96/relnotesgen. IMO it's not a huge deal if it's not 100% accurate.

@dom96 do you mind adding me as contributor so I can add label "low priority"? (that's what I had done in original https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/10163, which I had wrongly posted to wrong repo; but where I do have contributor access)

better to keep open but mark as low priority than closing
