This reintegrates the WIP release notes from the wiki.

This also adds a note to the release notes about macOS Catalina users having to "right click" and "Open" to open the DMG. Happy to adjust this as required.

Looks like there have been some changes since you opened this.

Please pick up the latest changes, then replace the wiki page with a message, so no more edits are done there.

I'll merge this tomorrow, before tagging -final.

Shouldn't we mention #16714 here? It is a really notable change for bitcoin-qt users.

MarcoFalke commented at 3:30 PM on November 8, 2019:

Gui users will either see the intro screen and the new feature, because it is a fresh install. Or they don't, because it is not a fresh install. In either case it wouldn't help them if they knew about it upfront. Also, at some point we need to pull the release notes and push out the release.

ACK 8bca3ce0b121b77bec4915617dfceed4c023962c

I'm going to move forward with this, there's been plenty of time to make edits on the wiki, or comment on one of the issues related with 0.19. We don't tend to hold up releases on release notes.
