chore: link 2.6.0 changelog entries to the prs that shipped them

[ovitrif]

Refs: #1473

Description

• Lists the first-time guidance for the balance unit and hiding the balance (fix: show first-time balance gesture toasts #1272) under Added, since it is a new feature.
• Points three entries at the merged PRs that shipped them instead of their still-open issues:
  • Paykit: recover stale sessions and harden coroutine error handling #1093 → fix: flag session restore on pubky init fail #1305
  • fix: recover ldk restart after background timeout #1125 → fix: reconcile node state on start cancel #1291
  • Contact payment latency on staging with the shared Paykit runtime: pin paykit-rs#171 and re-measure #1419 → fix: prioritize explicit contact linking #1451

Manual Tests

CHANGELOG.md 2.6.0 section only; every other line is unchanged. The draft release body follows the changelog, so it needs the same edits when it is regenerated.

No findings. Moves the balance-guidance entry (#1272) from Fixed to Added and points three 2.6.0 entries at the merged PRs instead of their open issues. Reviewed 2ea8a37, light tier.

What I checked

• #1305, #1291 and #1451 are merged pull requests whose merge commits are on release-2.6.0, and their titles match the entries; #1093, #1125 and #1419 are still-open issues.
• #1272 is merged and on release-2.6.0; after the move it appears once in the 2.6.0 section.
• Section headings and the rest of CHANGELOG.md are unchanged.
• CI was still running when I read it.

Merge confidence: 5/5, a changelog-only change with every link checked.

No findings. #1305, #1291 and #1451 are the merged PRs behind those entries (#1093, #1125 and #1419 are open issues), #1272 now appears once, under Added, and nothing else in CHANGELOG.md moved. The missing #1248 on the Paykit list entry (my thread on #1473) is still open; it can ride here or in #1473.
