Follow [Palette, installed nodes, link to CHANGELOG.md or](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/palette-installed-nodes-link-to-changelog-md-or/24790) :

I would like to add a `Changelog` button that opens a dialog box with the contents of the changelog.

The catalog should contain a link to GitHub.

As an improvement, the dialog will target the content and have a "see more" button.

The interest is to facilitate the user to consult this file. It's particularly interesting for the notes of major versions.

For the follow-up:

Currently, the NR team do not have a reliable way to guarantee that the provided link is the link to a valid Changelog. Unless someone finds a solution, this feature will remain on the backlog 😕

Explanation: the catalog contains modules coming from NPM. What links GitHub (or other) to NPM is the repo link defined in the `package.json`. This link being provided by the author of the module, it's subject to errors (bad url, private repo, origin url for fork...)
