Summary0017411: Empty change log is confusing
Description

When the change log is empty, the users are not really clear about what it is for, how to use it, or how to get issues to show up there. In such case, it would be helpful to show a message that explains this.

Fixes 0017411, 0017412 for empty changelog/roadmap

This change provides the user with a message that explains why the change log or roadmap pages are empty.

- Changelog message wasn't explaining what is going on.
- Changelog message wasn't showing when there were no issues, only when there were no projects.
- Changelog message formatting was using page title style.
- Roadmap had no messages.
- Roadmap had a variable to check usage that wasn't being used.

Now we show a different message based on whether the user is manager (hence can create versions)
or a regular user.
