commit fd6b24f1ef8ff26c97cb7e48bad8645cc63d2001

    Additions to users' guide and release notes
    
    This makes two changes to the documentation:
    
    * Adds a comment in the release notes about the ability to
      quote primitive chars and strings in TH (see D1054)
    * Removes an outdated comment in the users' guide about TH not
      being able to handle `PartialTypeSignatures` (which was fixed in
      D1048)
