Enable changesets-gitlab Commenting

Problem/Motivation

changesets-gitlab can comment on merge requests to summarize changesets and/or alert when no changeset is included. It would be nice to have this, but it depends on a gitlab token that we can't expose to all merge requests, only protected branches.

The ideal would be to have this commenting on all MRs, even issue forks. But I'm not convinced that can happen given our security needs.

Second best would be to have commenting working between protected branches like `canary` and `main`. This would at least allow us to preview changesets before merging. I suspect there is some kind of Gitlab limitation here - even in this scenario the variables are not being made available to our protected branches.
