Release Note Additions

We should probably add the removal of JSPAC to the Release Notes. Also
added the following new features that were missing from the original
notes.

- Options to hide some user preferences from TPAC
- New fields for acq distribution formulas
- Public copy notes
- Direct access to item attribute editor
- Setting staff client search preferences
