relnotes: advertize the possibility to use rust

I think the rust work may have been mentioned in the release notes,
but if so only in passing, and not as an invitation to try it out.

I think the next version is a decent time to do this, because the rust
doesn't come with performance regressions AFAIK, speeds up status
noticeably when it applies, which is the case for most invocations of
status, and doesn't have the undesirable restriction of regex around
empty patterns anymore.

I am cheating a bit, because I'm giving numbers for `hg status` in
mozilla-central, but they have one hgignore pattern that uses
lookaround, ".vscode/(?!extensions\.json|tasks\.json", which I took
out as it would cause a fallback to python when unknown files are
requested. But it seems that they could express their hgignore
differently if they were so inclined.

Not sure if there are limitation other than linux-only that I am
not thinking of but would be worth mentioning upfront, to avoid
disappointing users?

"""Tool read primitive events from a pipe to produce a catapult trace.

Usage:
    Terminal 1: $ catapipe.py /tmp/mypipe /tmp/trace.json
    Terminal 2: $ HGCATAPULTSERVERPIPE=/tmp/mypipe hg root
    <ctrl-c catapipe.py in Terminal 1>
    $ catapult/tracing/bin/trace2html /tmp/trace.json  # produce /tmp/trace.html
    <open trace.html in your browser of choice; the WASD keys are very useful>
    (catapult is located at https://github.com/catapult-project/catapult)

For now the event stream supports

  START $SESSIONID ...

and

  END $SESSIONID ...

events. Everything after the SESSIONID (which must not contain spaces)
is used as a label for the event. Events are timestamped as of when
they arrive in this process and are then used to produce catapult
traces that can be loaded in Chrome's about:tracing utility. It's
important that the event stream *into* this process stay simple,
because we have to emit it from the shell scripts produced by
run-tests.py.

Typically you'll want to place the path to the named pipe in the
HGCATAPULTSERVERPIPE environment variable, which both run-tests and hg
understand. To trace *only* run-tests, use HGTESTCATAPULTSERVERPIPE instead.
