chore(CHANGELOG): introduce perf() section for performance-related commits

Instead of using fix() or chore() when labelling a commit which improves
speed or performance use perf(). Perf commits will be listed in the
CHANGELOG under "Performance Improvements".

For example:
perf($animate): cache all getComputedStyle operations to reduce additional reflows
