As noted in another thread, LLVM 15's assembler is now required, before 
LLVM 13.0.1 would do. (Alternatively, disabling gfx1100 support would 
do.) Hence, the added link to the install documentation.


Comments, suggestions?


I'm happy with the technical correctness of this, but I'm uncertain if 
"which required an update of the default build requirements" is the sort 
of wording we like in the changelog?


Perhaps like this?

  Initial support for the AMD Radeon gfx1030 (RDNA2) and
  gfx1100 (RDNA3) devices has been added.  LLVM 15+
  (assembler and linker) is required to support gfx1100.
