show a Release-Notes URI if infos were changed

This gives the repository owner a chance to explain why this change was
needed – e.g. explaining the organisational changes or simply detailing
the changes in the new release made. Note that this URI is also shown
if the change is accepted, so it also draws attention to release notes
of minor updates (if users watch apt output closely).
