Add option to not generate a default changelog entry

For Rust packages created through the OBS source service, the
changelog is managed by an external <pkg>.changes file that is
transformed into an RPM changelog and appended to the spec file
automatically by the Open Build Service.

Having a default entry means that the changelog handling will not
always work correctly and package builds may fail due to changelog
entries not being in reverse chronological order.

This also is a future enabler for other workflows for external
changelog management in automated package builds.
