This is for the convenience of Emacs developers to save time figuring
out how to enable it.  It's just additional highlighting in the
ChangeLog files like highlighting of file names or function names,
so it can't be more distracting.  Maybe even change-log-mode should
enable it by default because bug-reference-mode is too useful.

However, unlike enabling it in change-log-mode, local variables
from .dir-locals.el currently can't be overridden by the user,
so perhaps now we should remove it from .dir-locals.el.
