I finally got around to this, or rather to the half that didn't have a
mention of NO_IPV6. While there, I noticed a stray uppercase letter
elsewhere (2x) and fixed that as well. Patch (generated from
postfix-3.8-20220421) attached.
The source file for IPV6_README is: proto/IPV6_README.html

This is a derived file, and the patch should be against the "proto"
file.

THis is the only "INSTALL" file to edit.
Revised patch per above. While in proto/IPV6_README.html, I tweaked the
link text in one spot for better screenreader accessibility per
https://webaim.org/techniques/hypertext/#alpha_links. (Other links there
or elsewhere in the documentation may need similar changes. Let me know
if you & WV want to do that yourselves.)
