Description

Bug fixes for and improvements to changes2html.pl, which generates Changes.html from CHANGES.txt:

1. When the current location has a fragment identifier, expand parent sections, so that the linked-to section is visible.
2. Properly handle beginning-of-release comments that don't fall under a section heading (previously: some content in release "1.9 final" was invisible).
3. Auto-linkify SOLR-XXX and INFRA-XXX JIRA issues (previously: only LUCENE-XXX issues).
4. Auto-linkify Bugzilla bugs prefaced with "Issue" (previously: only "Bug" and "Patch").
5. Auto-linkify Bugzilla bugs in the form "bugs XXXXX and YYYYY".
6. Auto-linkify issues that follow attributions.
