reformat ancient parts of changelog
move the original formattin to changelog-1996
reformat those entries to fit the format mandated by Debian policy
vim debchangelog formatting in conjunction with gbp dch jumps to the
old, "misformatted" parts of changelog, unaware that this part of
changelog from 30 years ago most probably predates this part of policy.
