Changing versions in NEWS files for pre-release increments is too hard

New submission from jml <[email protected]>:

`change-versions` doesn't change the version in NEWS files. `build-news` adds a new heading on top of the previous pre-release heading, e.g.

{{{
Twisted Core 10.0.0pre2 (2010-02-24)
====================================

Twisted Core 10.0.0pre1 (2010-02-21)
====================================
}}}

Ideally there'd be some way to bump the pre-release version. Perhaps `change-versions` should do this?
