Summary

I had a look at the changes since the last release and updated the
release notes with interesting changes.

It seems this time the release notes were already rather up to date :-)

If there are more interesting changes, please let me know and I'll
update the patch. I'd like to commit these changes latest next weekend
so they land before branching the 14.0 release.

I've added most active libc++ contributors. If I forgot anybody please add them.

@ChuanqiXu: Do you agree with this statement?
I don't specifically object to it myself, but I figure @ChuanqiXu is the person who knows best.

- The ``<experimental/coroutine>`` header is deprecated, as is any
  use of coroutines without C++20. Use C++20's ``<coroutine>`` header
  instead. The ``<experimental/coroutine>`` header will be removed
  in LLVM 15.

Yeah, I agree. The <coroutine> header should already be completed.

I based it on D109433 which marked the feature-test macro as implemented.

LGTM, and I agree with pretty much all the suggested reformulations. I think it's great to see that we've collectively been getting much better at writing release notes as we make changes -- that's how it should be done.

Agreed and I too noticed the release notes were in a much better shape this time around.

Thanks for all review comments, especially @Quuxplusone for suggesting a lot of improvements.
