I don't know what he has done, but it's possible to stack SMT capacitors if great care is taken. This will work for the line-in and mic-in changes, but I cannot see how stacking C9/C13 will work for the headphone output change. If he's accomplished that task, God bless him. Myself, I've found it takes a great balancing act to stack SMT parts and hold the new component in place. I'm not the world's best SMT re-work guy, so others may have developed better eye-hand coordination skills.
