forward-port the 0.4.8.x change stanzas

somehow our release process is not moving these into git main

requested review from @dgoulet

I think fixing typos here and not in the origin may cause merge conflicts later on?

Maybe? Depends how you do them? The way I use to do them was just to go find the text in a release-0.x.y branch, and put that text into main, and commit it. This is because you can merge forward from maint-0.x.y, but not really from release-0.x.y, and release-0.x.y is where the changelog stanzas are.

Let's wait and see what David says here from his workflow -- you might be right.

Yeah my current release work flow doesn't include forward merging these to main... so thanks for this!
