Documentation/releases: Update checklist 

Having the release notes mostly ready one week before the release
allows for better review.

Some statistics, the actual release date and commit ID can only be
filled in on release day, but there's a tried & true technique for
that: placeholders.

It's also a nice touch to have the release notes of a release within
its source tarballs, so push them right before creating the release
(since changes in Documentation/releases won't break coreboot in
any way).
