Description

Hello, as per the comments in this issue: https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-nodejs-client/issues/2438
It was suggested to raise a new issue for this topic in that thread.

As of today, the changelog is still rather useless:

![image](https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-nodejs-client/assets/490562/0324381d-4322-4592-b453-ca2bdb7443dd)

It doesn't provide any details about what has changed, why it's breaking, and how to migrate.
We are 10 versions behind now, and it will be a massive pain to try and figure out what the breaking changes are, if any.

Can the changelog please be fixed so that it details what the actual breaking changes are.

This seems to have been an issue for the past 3 years, but I am flagging this as a bug because in the linked issue thread it was noted that it was fixed at some point. So perhaps a regression.

Thanks,
