[JENKINS-54972] Build Changelogs don't expose SCM Name for Git repo

When using the Multiple SCM plugin with multiple Git repositories, it's not possible to distinguish which changes came from which repositories without visiting the commits themselves.

There's a bunch of headings which give the build number, and the time, and are repeated for each SCM, but the name of the SCM itself isn't exposed.

This is despite it being possible to configure a custom SCM name.
