Introduce a new configuration parameter,
`CHANGELOG_RETAIN_CREATE_LAST_UPDATE`, to retain each object's create
record and most recent update record when pruning expired changelog
entries (per `CHANGELOG_RETENTION`).
Update documentation, templates, and forms to reflect this change.

Fixes #21409

## CHANGELOG_RETAIN_CREATE_LAST_UPDATE
!!! tip "Dynamic Configuration Parameter"
Default: `True`
When pruning expired changelog entries (per `CHANGELOG_RETENTION`), retain each non-deleted object's original `create`
change record and its most recent `update` change record. If an object has a `delete` change record, its changelog
entries are pruned normally according to `CHANGELOG_RETENTION`.
!!! note
For objects without a `delete` change record, the original `create` record and most recent `update` record are
exempt from pruning. All other changelog records (including intermediate `update` records and all `delete` records)
remain subject to pruning per `CHANGELOG_RETENTION`.
!!! warning
This setting is enabled by default. Upgrading deployments that rely on complete pruning of expired changelog entries
should explicitly set `CHANGELOG_RETAIN_CREATE_LAST_UPDATE = False` to preserve the previous behavior.
