Hi,

When running `gbp dch` and the changelog contains an UNRELEASED entry, the entry
is updated but its urgency is reset to `medium`, despite preserving the comment:

  $ git status
  [...]
  nothing to commit, working tree clean

  $ gbp dch --full
  gbp:info: Changelog last touched at '4b2e728aa5b340bb912d407e0a381a2e70fee792'
  gbp:info: No changes detected from 4b2e728aa5b340bb912d407e0a381a2e70fee792 to HEAD.
