[Bug]: 3.5.2 release notes have wrong titles, links and duplicates

Describe the problem you're encountering

On the 3.5.2 release notes page, I want to know a list of features, bugs, etc that are in the release. However I see a lot of continuity issues. Here's two examples:

• the ticket @dianabarsan discovered is still open when I'd expect it to be closed. Futher, it is listed as being included in the release with the correct ticket and link - but the title of the link on the release notes is #5894: Improve / fix Jenkins workspace cleanup which isn't correct I don't think?
• the pull "Optimize view building #5987" is (maybe?!) listed as Do not run a full GC after each index doc update. Increase view queue size from 100KB to 10MB. This should improve view index building times and links to an unrelated change as far as I can tell (5942).

Expected Behaviour

The release notes page should allow folks to easily know what is in the release with deep link to the tickets that were included in the release

Steps to Reproduce

1. go to 3.5.2 release notes

Your Environment

the docs.couchdb.org website

Additional Context

Medic is assessing if CouchDB 3.5.2 has fixed a bug Diana found as well as which features are included in it. The release notes page makes this hard to do with out slow, manual cross checks of commits and such.

The origin where these changes were introduced appears to be 9956d6e in the 3.5.x branch which is what seems to be published on the public release notes.

The fix which includes performance is #5896 and is include in the release notes as

#5896: Nouveau bulk index updates. Replace doc-at-a-time updates to bulk updates which should improve index building.

It was our bad for not closing the issue though, I will do so immediately

#5984: Update Jiffy to 2.0. Jiffy 2.0 has a number of performance optimization which should speed up both encoding and decoding.

links to the wrong ticket

Something is wrong with the release notes for this version. I checked several links, and almost every link is wrong.
For this list, I assumed the text is correct and the issue number is wrong:

#5942: Fix cluster index cleanup -> #5986
#5811: Avoid updating password hash when request uses simple password scheme -> #5820
#5811: Avoid updating password hash when request uses simple password scheme -> #5982
#5908: Optimize replicator. Use gen_server casts to queue docs for _bulk_docs in replication -> #5994
#5992: Do not run a full GC after each index doc update -> #5987
#5942: Pre-fetch design docs once per cleanup request and reuse signatures across nodes is wrong; I'm not sure which ticket would be correct.
#5776, #5704, #5701, #5708, #5707, #5702, #5694, #5691, #5731, #5867: QuickJS updates. are wrong
#5776: Fix purge mem3_rep client verification -> #5758
#5830: Fix race condition during purge checkpoint creation -> #5827
#5825: Fix handling shards dbs purge checkpoints in mem3_rep -> #5832

I stopped here because it seems there was an error while creating the release notes. I assume there is a script that generates this. If not, I will complete the list of wrong links.

Good catch. I used a script and it looked merge commits but we have a mix of merge and non-merge commits with cherry-picking also making things harder. I will make a pr later today to fix it.
