Anchor links on changelog do not always scroll to accurate position

1. The anchors for headline release do not have enough spacing to accommodate the fixed navigation which can cause, in part, this issue.
2. Investigate he simple smooth-scroll capability. Removing its current implementation may resolve this.

There is currently no possible solution for keeping smooth scroll + keeping anchor tags all presented in the changelog.

Read through the warnings of this to see why.

We can, however, disable smooth scrolling for the time being to keep anchor link integrity.

@ancestral @ZeldaZach, please see above note. Shall we bench smooth scroll for now?

I like smooth scrolling. Also, that URL is dead.

Link updated. TL;DR, we might have to handle the changelog differently or reformat the heading styling. Would require some experimentation at this point is all.

This is a thing with limited support: https://css-tricks.com/fixed-headers-on-page-links-and-overlapping-content-oh-my/

After further investigation this is a problem also assisted by the way we automatically "documentize" a markdown changelog:

When anchoring to a headline the page expects the previous anchor to be out of view. Because the changelog markdown is not directly markup, there is no way to target the section/headline in CSS and add more spacing intelligently and with regard to any and all future markdown formatting.

Further investigation is warranted.

Final thoughts and then im closing this ticket because its stale and the conditions are no longer as accurate:

This is unfixable as long as we have a fixed navigation. There is, to my knowledge, in Vuepress and all browsers a way to win this battle.
