docs: add 0.21.1 release notes
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only adds a new release notes document for version 0.21.1. It contains no code changes. The document itself describes a prior bug fix about Tor onion service key types, but the commit under review is purely documentation.
No security action needed; this is a documentation-only commit. Review the referenced PR #10907 separately if assessing the Tor onion service key-type fix.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.

+# Bug Fixes
+
+* [Updated the `tor` module to
+ `v1.1.7`](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/pull/10907) so fresh
+ nodes started with `--tor.active --tor.v3` create v3 onion services with
+ `NEW:ED25519-V3`. Previously, the root module still resolved `tor v1.1.6`,
+ which could default new onion service creation to the retired v2
+ `NEW:RSA1024` key type that modern Tor rejects with `513 Invalid key type`.
