Using `--changelog` regenerates the full changelog instead of just the current increment

[edgarrmondragon]

Description

Starting with v3.18.1, using --changelog generates the full catalog instead of only prepending the changes for the current increment.

This can be seen even in the GitHub release notes of commitizen itself starting with v3.18.2: they now include the full changelog.

Steps to reproduce

For example:

cz --no-raise 21 bump --yes --changelog --files-only --check-consistency --changelog-to-stdout >_changelog_fragment.md

Current behavior

The full changelog is regenerated instead of just the current increment.

Desired behavior

Only generate the current increment section of the changelog.

A FIX is on its way, awaiting for @noirbizarre

Yes, sorry I noticed that.
I think I will revert the change (tomorrow) and provide a more robust approach.
In fact we have a design flaw to fix: the way we are handling --changelog-to-stdout on the bump command we can't have both dry-run, incremental and changelog_hook at the same time
