The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only updates documentation. It adds a release note and a BIP implementation list entry describing a prior code change (PR #34779) that makes Bitcoin Core ignore certain BIP 9 soft-fork signal bits per BIP 323. There is no code change here and no direct security risk in the commit itself.

Recommended action

No security action needed for this documentation commit. Review PR #34779 separately if assessing the security of the BIP 323 signaling behavior change.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
