Merge bitcoin#24583: doc: Add template for empty release notes

fa4943e doc: Add template for empty release notes (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  * Move release process notes from the release notes to the release process documentation
  * Clarify that wallet RPC or Settings related release notes snippets should not be duplicated. I think it should be sufficient to only mention them in the wallet section and leave them out from the general RPC section.
  * Create an empty template to ensure the release notes can be cleared with a single `cp` command. Also, this ensures that the "no duplication" note isn't deleted again. (We used to have it in at least the 22.0 and 21.0 release notes: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/release-notes/release-notes-0.21.0.md#updated-settings , but it was lost in the 23.0 notes)

+
+# Upgrading and downgrading
+
+## How to Upgrade
+
+If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
+shut down (which might take a few minutes in some cases), then run the
+installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Dash-Qt (on Mac) or
+dashd/dash-qt (on Linux).
+
+## Downgrade warning
+
+### Downgrade to a version < *version*
+
+Downgrading to a version older than *version* may not be supported, and will
+likely require a reindex.
