Repository housekeeping. No packaging effect — CHANGES.md was already
excluded from the 0.7.2 sdist and wheel by the MANIFEST.in fix, so the
artifacts built at v0.7.2 remain valid and unchanged.

Why this isn't a plain delete

CHANGES.md was the only record of the 0.2.0, 0.3.0 and 0.4.0 releases —
CHANGELOG.md began at 0.5.2. Deleting it outright would have discarded the
project's early history, so those entries are migrated first, with their
original wording preserved and dates recovered from git rather than invented:

Version Date Source commit
0.4.0 2020-03-04 b541676 "bump to version 0.4.0"
0.3.0 2020-03-02 a1cb9bb "added pay-by-token method"
0.2.0 2017-09-28 edb34c2 first packaged release

CHANGELOG.md now runs unbroken from 0.2.0 to 0.7.2, ending the two-changelog
split.

No changelog was kept for 0.5.0 or 0.5.1. That gap predates this change, and I
left it rather than reconstructing entries from commit messages.

CHANGES.md was the only record of the 0.2.0, 0.3.0 and 0.4.0 releases;
CHANGELOG.md began at 0.5.2. Deleting it outright would have discarded the
project's early history, so those three entries are migrated first, with
their original wording preserved and dates recovered from git:

  0.4.0  2020-03-04  b541676 "bump to version 0.4.0"
  0.3.0  2020-03-02  a1cb9bb "added pay-by-token method"
  0.2.0  2017-09-28  edb34c2 first packaged release

No changelog was kept for 0.5.0 or 0.5.1; that gap predates this change and
is left as it is rather than reconstructed from commit messages.

This is repository housekeeping with no packaging effect: CHANGES.md was
already excluded from the 0.7.2 sdist and wheel by the MANIFEST.in fix, so
the artifacts built at v0.7.2 remain valid and unchanged.
