Replacement for open-mpi#10770 to add to existing PR on source code bit (open-mpi#10772). A little reworking to move declspec cite out to a note and roll in other feedback.

@naughtont3 I gave you bad advice, sorry -- I told you to put the commit on open-mpi#10772, (which is a v5.0.x PR) but I really should have said open-mpi#10762 (which is a master PR, and has now already merged). I.e., we need to get the text merged to OMPI's main branch first, and then bring it to v5.0.x.

So at this point, this text needs to go into a new PR to merge to main, and then we can bring it to v5.0.x. Since it was my mistake to tell you to put it on 10772, I made open-mpi#10780. Can you review it? (since I can't review my own PR). I'll merge it, and then we can add that commit to the existing v5.0.x open-mpi#10772.

No worries and thanks for making the other PR, approved and on its way. :-) Thanks.
