84e6064d51 Remove unreleased.rst (#3547)
* Start working on getting rid of unreleased.rst

Document new process in CONTRIBUTING.md,
.github/pull_request_template.md and unreleased.rst (for good measure)

Report the previous changelog additions here so that they're not lost in
the mist of times.

CHANGELOG_BEGIN

- [DAML Stdlib] Added the ``NumericScale`` typeclass, which improves the type inference for Numeric literals, and helps catch the creation of out-of-bound Numerics earlier in the compilation process.

- [DAML Triggers] ``emitCommands`` now accepts an additional argument
  that allows you to mark contracts as pending. Those contracts will
  be automatically filtered from the result of ``getContracts`` until
  we receive the corresponding completion/transaction.

- [Navigator] Fixed a bug where Navigator becomes unresponsive if the ledger does not contain any DAML packages.

- [Ledger-API] Add field ``gen_map`` in Protobuf definition for ledger
  api values. This field is used to support generic maps, an new
  feature currently in development.  See issue
  https://github.com/digital-asset/daml/pull/3356 for more details
  about generic maps.

  The Ledger API will send no messages where this field is set, when
  using a stable version of DAML-LF.  However the addition of this
  field may cause pattern-matching exhaustive warnings in the code of
  ledger API clients. Those warnings can be safely ignored until
  GenMap is made stable in an upcoming version of DAML-LF.

- [JSON API - Experimental] CLI configuration to enable serving static content as part of the JSON API daemon:
  ``--static-content "directory=/full/path,prefix=static"``
  This configuration is NOT recommended for production deployment. See issue #2782.

- [Extractor] The app can now work against a Ledger API server that requires client authentication. See `issue #3157 <https://github.com/digital-asset/daml/issues/3157>`__.
- [DAML Script] This release contains a first version of an experimental DAML script
   feature that provides a scenario-like API that is run against an actual ledger.
- [DAML Compiler] The default DAML-LF version is now 1.7. You can
  still produce DAML-LF 1.6 by passing ``--target=1.6`` to ``daml
  build``.

- [JSON API - Experimental] The database schema has changed; if using
  ``--query-store-jdbc-config``, you must rebuild the database by adding
  ``,createSchema=true``.
  See `issue #3461 <https://github.com/digital-asset/daml/pull/3461>`_.

- [JSON API - Experimental] Terminate process immediately after creating schema. See issue #3386.

- [DAML Stdlib] ``fromAnyChoice`` and ``fromAnyContractKey`` now take
  the template type into account.

Move unreleased user-facing features to its own file (#1762)
* Move unreleased user-facing features to its own file

docs/source/support/release-notes.rst unfortunately represents a "global
lock" when it comes to submitting contributions: if another contribution
changed it while another was going through the CI/review process, the
latter would have to go again through the CI build after resolving the
conflict and merging the resulting commit.

The contributors originally tried to address this problem by letting the
system automatically performing this operation, but this failed because
release notes were moved to the wrong section by mistake.

This simple change would allow the contributors to let the system take
care of merging on its own, because existing release notes will no
longer be corrupted by the process.

There is a caveat: the automatic merging could result in invalid RST
(mostly because of missing newlines). This would push the task of
ensuring the release notes are valid RST to the release. I would argue
this can be done quite easily and that this is checked automatically
when rendering RST to HTML, so it could be a nuisance during release but
it would make the day-to-day contributions easier.
