This documents AMD GCN's new much-more complete TI-mode
(__int128_t) support, that was as v2 just posted by Julian
and should get committed very soon.
Additionally, -foffload= (previously undocumented) has been
split into -foffload= and -foffload-options= and now has a
documentation. Hence, both flags are now in the release notes,
linking to their documentation. (Link are broken until the
next cron run.)
