Research direction
First, review PR #39650 to understand the pattern for adding changelogUrl to presets. Then, locate the GitLab digest preset file, likely under `lib/config/presets/internal/` in the repository. Add a `changelogUrl` property for GitLab host similar to the existing one for GitHub. Finally, run the test suite to ensure the change works correctly.
