LOG: [llvm][docs] Remove guidance on adding release:reviewed label (#164395)

"How To Release LLVM To The Public" [1] mentions to add the
release:reviewed label once a bug has been reviewed, but looking at the
label [2] it seems this hasn't been followed for quite a long time, so I
propose we remove it.
