bdd55d2bef Add the fact that we anticipate switching to use (some subset of) C++11
after the 3.4 release to the release notes. See the *lengthy* llvmdev
and cfe-dev threads on this subject. There will be more emails,
discussion and announcements, but I want to make noise in as many places
as I can to get everyone's concerns voiced and understood.

c1bb2d4325 Use pipefail when available.
This change makes test with RUN lines like
RUN: opt ... | FileCheck

fail if opt fails, even if it prints what FileCheck wants. Enabling this
found some interesting cases of broken tests that were not being noticed
because opt (or some other tool) was crashing late.

Pipefail is used when the shell supports it or when using the internal
python based tester.

4a535629ec docs: Nuke the old release notes.
This change also removes a bunch of boilerplate and stuffing which made
it unnecessarily hard to navigate and see the comparatively miniscule
actual content that was added to this document during the 3.2
development period (or maybe even sticking around from earlier
releases...).

The new organization (a flat list) optimizes for making it easy for
people who know about changes to add them to the document.  It's
completely trivial for anyone with basic knowledge of LLVM to come in
later (such as when preparing for the actual release) and cluster any
changes into logical groups. However, I have left some comments
indicating how to add larger descriptions, if someone is feeling
adventurous ;)

Hopefully this organization will highlight how little effort is being
put into producing accurate, high-quality release notes, prompting a
corresponding improvement for the 3.3 release.

I have preserved the changes to this document that are not present
in the 3.2 release notes. There were only two... I'm pretty sure we've
been busier than that... (version control shows +213347/-173656 raw
lines just in the LLVM repo since the 3.2 release).
