Change subject: Sync 1.21 release notes from master

Sync 1.21 release notes from master
These were part of change I5e6f7d48 and were committed on the master
branch. But then moved from 1.21 notes to 1.22 notes in Id442e6f since
the change wasn't intended to be backported to 1.21. However some other
corrections were made in the same commit that were specific to the 1.21
notes and not yet backported.
