Package: release-notes

Hi!

I see no explicit mention of the time64 transition. I think this should
be documented because the transition involved a no-SONAME-rename which
means we broke the involved architectures ABI, where we protected the
archive from that breakage via packaging metadata. But for locally
built code, this can silently break it while those binaries do not fail
to link. The exception (and its rationale) for i386 should also be
mentioned.

(The only implicit reference for this I see is from
<https://salsa.debian.org/ddp-team/release-notes/-/merge_requests/214>,
so once the time64 transition is documented, then this entry can be
updated to refer to the time64 description.)

Thanks,
Guillem
