Description

Repoints the frontend-base porting links in the Verawood dev/operator release notes at the real docs: an internal cross-reference to the ported how-to, and the openedx org copy of the migration guide.

The build will fail until main is pulled into the target branch.

LLM usage notice

Built with assistance from Claude.

* Create empty branch

* docs: sync Verawood dev/operator release notes with wiki updates (#1486)

* docs: add Verawood dev/operator release notes content

Populate the Verawood dev/operator release notes with breaking changes,
deprecations & removals, Aspects analytics, and administrators &
operators sections.

* docs: sync Verawood dev/operator release notes with wiki updates

Integrate additions and corrections made to the Verawood Operator
Release Notes wiki page since the notes were first drafted here.

- Correct the Upgrade/upsell widget entry: it is enabled by default
  in Verawood, and the config keys and slot names it documented were
  out of date.
- Note that notifications and notification emails are now enabled by
  default via new opt-out waffle flags.
- Document removal of course-level notification preferences, the
  is_core preference flag, and the V2 notification preferences
  config API.
- Expand the send_email_digest deprecation entry with the new daily
  and weekly digest scheduling settings.
- Document new operator-facing notification settings: instance-level
  preference overrides, the immediate-email buffer window, and ORA
  reminder notifications.
- Add the Frontend-base and Loading External Scripts sections, which
  were present on the wiki page but missing from these notes.

* Update source/community/release_notes/verawood/dev_op_release_notes.rst

Co-authored-by: Maria Grimaldi (Majo) <maria.grimaldi@edunext.co>

* docs: add RBAC AuthZ for Course Authoring to Verawood release notes

Adds a new entry under Administrators & Operators covering the
authz.enable_course_authoring waffle flag (course/org/global
levels), the migration and rollback management commands, the
opt-in automatic migration setting, the audit trail, and a known
caveat around Admin Console course visibility, including the
flag-resolution behavior added in
openedx/frontend-app-admin-console#176.

* docs: add a Migrations to be aware of section to Verawood release notes

Several migrations in this release touch existing data at scale, run
automatically without an explicit opt-in, or can fail depending on
instance data history. Consolidate the existing course-ID case
sensitivity callout with four newly identified ones (MariaDB UUID
conversion, AuthZ course-authoring role migration, catalog course/run
backfill, and enterprise academies auto-enable) into one dedicated,
top-level section so operators can find them ahead of an upgrade.
