[PATCH 5/6] doc/rel_notes: fix style of API changes section

Bruce Richardson bruce.richardson at intel.com
Tue Jul 21 17:13:24 CEST 2026


The format of the API section as documented does not have headings in
bold. This simpler format is also what is used for the 25.11 and
previous release notes. Update text for 26.07 to match the documented
and previously used style.
