doc: add release note for submitSolution IPC changes
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only adds a release note describing a previous change to the inter-process communication (IPC) interface for submitting block solutions. It does not change any code, behavior, or configuration. There is no security issue in this documentation-only commit.
No action required. This is a documentation-only release note. Review the underlying PR #34672 separately if assessing the actual IPC behavior change.

+IPC Interface
+-------------
+
+- `BlockTemplate.submitSolution` now returns `reason` and `debug` rejection
+ details in addition to the boolean result. Clients must regenerate IPC
+ bindings from the updated `mining.capnp` schema to use the new method. The
+ previous `@7` method now returns an error directing clients to update. (#34672)
+
+- `BlockTemplate.submitSolution` now reports duplicate blocks as failures with
+ `reason="duplicate"`, matching `Mining.submitBlock`, instead of returning
+ success for duplicate submissions. (#34672)
Why this scored 15/100
