Description
Using rst2myst and adjustments. Exploratory PR for the release notes only for now as prior discussed with @electrum and @martint
I am queueing up separate commits as learning exercise and squash prior to submitting for review.
Ideally I can confirm that after the conversion the produced HTML is identical. Using a folder diff tool for that during exploration.
Update:
Had to do minor manual adjustments and add some myst parser config. The produced HTML is now identical to the original apart from two places that I had to manually adjust. I fixed those and the HTML is different but looks the same so there is no negative impact. Files are release-0.69 and release-308.
