I think this is pretty easy to catch during code review. We already have to watch out for old PRs targeting previous releases (e.g. a PR still modifying the LLVM 20 release notes), so I don't think we're making anything worse, and we're making it a lot simpler for people who author PRs to just adjust the right release notes from the get go.

To me, creating a new process to add release notes in a specific branch every release, documenting it, and teaching it to people, is much more burdensome than just having them in `main` for a few weeks before the release branch and making sure PRs target the right version during code review (which we already have to do). So, my opinion is that it's not worth it.
