Fixes the issue seen here #11483 (comment) and in a couple other PRs
The changelog file was opened without truncating it, so if the new version is shorter than the old one stray contents would remain at the end of the file
The other two files first removed the file so didn't have this problem, but in all cases we now use
fs::write
/File::create
which is write + create + truncatechangelog: none
