doc: Release notes for psbtv2
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only adds release notes documentation. It describes a planned change where several Bitcoin RPC commands will default to creating a newer PSBT format (version 2) and gain an optional version argument. There is no code change, no bug fix, and no security issue in this commit itself.
No security action needed. Review the actual PSBTv2 implementation commit(s) separately if assessing security relevance.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.

The actual functional change is implemented elsewhere; this commit is purely documentation.
