The heading `## Automatic notifications` is slightly misleading — these are manual checkboxes prompting the author to take action, not automated processes. The PR description itself calls this section a "Checklist", which is clearer and aligns better with what the items actually represent.

Problem
The PR template's freeform "Publish to changelog?" section was easy to overlook, and there was no equivalent prompt to notify Sales and Marketing about user-visible changes.

I'm an agent — no manual testing was performed. The change is a pure markdown edit to the PR template; rendering will be verified by GitHub when this PR opens.

No docs update required — this is a CI/repo-hygiene change.
🤖 Agent context
Authored by an agent on request: convert the freeform changelog section into two explicit checkboxes (changelog publish + Sales/Marketing alert). Considered keeping the explanatory HTML comments from the old section but opted to drop them so the new checklist stays terse; the same intent can be re-added later if reviewers find the prompts ambiguous. No other template sections were touched.
