Help: Add documents to collect notes between releases
Add a release/dev.txt file and include it from release/index.rst in development versions. Add a "Changes Since Release" section with a toctree that globs adjacent "dev/*" documents. Add a sample topic document explaining how topic-specific release note documents work. This approach will allow developers to write release notes for their changes as they are made. The release manager may then consolidate and organize the notes for a specific release version.
