The release messages in #releases don't look so good, and @bpmct suggested that we show the changelog.
Since that requires having a custom implementation for GitHub releases, we might aswell make the embed better.

Implementation 1
Feeding a custom webhook to the GH repo @ coder/coder, I don't think we can really do that because it'd require us to expose a web server with a valid certificate and in the context of this project it might be a bit too overkill.
Implementation 2
Requesting to the GitHub API frequently, I think this is not so reliable because it can be very delayed.
Implementation 3 (preferred)
Using discord webhooks as a bridge, we could have a dummy channel that receives the gh stuff, then Codercord looks at new messages in that channel, then posts to #releases, that would allow for the fastest announcements without having to expose a webhook.
