Adds a running docs/release-notes/<version>.md file, appended in the same PR as any user-visible behavior change, so notes are written at merge time instead of reconstructed at release time. Includes the mkdocs nav entry and an AGENTS.md rule making it part of the contribution conventions.

Seeded with the #4675 key pre-processor entry. The page carries an "Unreleased" notice until 8.1.0 ships; removing it is part of the release.


Note

Low Risk
Documentation and contributor-process updates only; no runtime or API changes in this diff.

Overview
Introduces a running release-notes workflow for the next version: contributors add user-visible behavior changes to docs/release-notes/8.1.0.md in the same PR instead of writing notes at release time.

AGENTS.md now requires that non-breaking behavior changes get an entry under docs/release-notes/, and MkDocs adds a Release Notes → 8.1.0 nav item. The new page is marked Unreleased until 8.1.0 ships and includes a Behavior Changes template plus the first entry for #4675 (key pre-processor coverage for ZRANGESTORE/GEOSEARCHSTORE source keys and eval/evalsha script keys, with upgrade actions for double-prefix workarounds and CROSSSLOT exception handling).

P2 Badge Add the missing FTSearchParams behavior note

Because this page is the running 8.1.0 notes, it also needs to mention the other user-visible behavior from #4675: FTSearchParams.params(Map) now merges/overwrites existing PARAMS after addParam() or prior params() calls instead of effectively ignoring the later map. Without an entry here, users upgrading from 8.0.0 won't know why FT.SEARCH queries built with mixed params can start returning different results; please add a Behavior Changes item for that fix.

AGENTS.md reference: AGENTS.md:L10-L10

Reviewers couldn't tell which versions the notes cover. Add a Full
Changelog compare link (v8.0.0...master until the tag exists) and fold
the link flip into the release-time step.
The compare link needed a manual update at release time; a plain
sentence states the covered upgrade without maintenance.
