We've got some [docs](https://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#release-notes) 
on this, but that's basically the bar. Almost every PR should have a release 
note unless the PR is NFC or modifying something that hasn't yet been released 
(and doesn't require the existing release note to be updated). Fixing a 
crashing bug is something we should tell users about; it's good to recognize 
when we're improving quality as opposed to just adding new functionality.
