doc: release note for alternate_wtxids in gettransaction
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only adds a release note describing a new RPC field called alternate_wtxids. It is documentation only and makes no code changes. There is no security issue in the commit itself.
No action needed; this is a documentation-only release note. Review the underlying PR #35501 if you want to assess the security of the alternate_wtxids feature implementation, but that code is not present in this commit.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
