[llvm] [llvm][Release] Add note about binaries to Github release description (PR #69698)

[David Spickett via llvm-commits]

https://github.com/DavidSpickett created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/69698

This appears on the announcements e.g. https://discourse.llvm.org/t/llvm-17-0-3-released/74172 and it is important context.

However a lot of folks see release pages e.g. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases/tag/llvmorg-17.0.3 first so it's good to include it there too.
