git-cliff generates per-commit CHANGELOG entries that are noisy when multiple commits implement a single feature. Release-Notes.md already contains a curated bullet summary written at the right altitude. Replace the git-cliff call in the just release recipe with an awk snippet that extracts those bullets, and remove git-cliff from dev dependencies.

Plan: (1) remove git-cliff from pyproject.toml dev group and regenerate pylock.toml; (2) replace the uv run git-cliff line in the justfile release recipe with a bash awk snippet that extracts bullets from Release-Notes.md and prepends a keepachangelog heading to CHANGELOG.md. Pause-to-edit step unchanged. Verify by simulating the extraction against the current Release-Notes.md.
