docs: add release note
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only adds a release note describing a new experimental RPC endpoint and a known limitation (manually created aliases are lost on restart). It changes documentation only and contains no code modifications.
No security action needed; this is a documentation-only release note update. Review the underlying PR #10133 separately if assessing the experimental endpoint's security.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
