docs: update release notes for 0.21.0
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only updates release notes documentation. It adds a description of a new feature (onion messaging forwarding) to the 0.21.0 release notes file. No code changes are present, so there is no direct security impact from this patch itself.
No security action needed for this documentation commit. If reviewing the referenced feature (PR #9868), evaluate its implementation separately.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff modifies docs/release-notes/release-notes-0.21.0.md, adding six lines describing basic support for onion messaging forwarding, including a new OnionMessage type with path key and onion blob serialization/deserialization. The actual implementation was presumably merged in a separate commit/PR (#9868). This commit is purely documentation.
