chore: add changeset for stores beta and config JSON parsing

[TabishB]

Adds a minor changeset for user-facing changes merged to main since v1.4.1 that did not yet have one.

Changes covered

New Features

• Stores (very early beta) (feat(stores)!: replace workspaces and initiatives with stores #1190) — Introduces stores as a simpler way to organize specs and changes, replacing the workspace and initiative model. Flagged as very early beta — expect rough edges and breaking changes in upcoming releases.

Bug Fixes

• Config parsing (Parse config JSON containers (#1216) #1244) — Configuration values wrapped in JSON containers are now parsed correctly.

Not included (by design)

• #1240 carriage-return escaping — already has a changeset (in release PR chore(release): version packages #1248).
• Docs overhaul (docs: comprehensive overhaul — discoverability, explore-first, and closing recurring doc-request issues #1237), CI/installer hardening (fix(ci+installers): harden permission checks and guard completion/profile writes #1247), dependency lock refresh ([codex] Refresh security dependency locks #1249) — docs/internal, follow the normal release cadence.

Effect on the release

Once merged, the Changesets action will regenerate release PR #1248, recomputing the version to 1.5.0 and folding in all three changelog entries. Merging #1248 then publishes to npm.

Poem

A bunny hopped by with a note in tow,
“Stores” took a nibble and began to glow.
JSON shells popped with a tiny crack,
and configs now land right on track.
Hoppy release notes! 🐰
