Code Issues Proposed changes

Update 2.12 release notes with fixes from stable-2.11

Browse Source 
Version 2.12 included several fixes that were made on stable-2.11
and merged up to stable-2.12 before 2.11.6 was released. Other
fixes were made on stable-2.11 after 2.12 and were included in
2.11.6.

In this case we can't simply say that "2.12 includes fixes done
in 2.11.6" because it doesn't include all of them.

Update the release notes to explicitly mention the ones that got
included.

* link:https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3714[Issue 3714]:
Improve visibility of comments on dark themes.
* Fix highlighting of search results and trailing whitespaces in intraline
diff chunks.
* Fix server error when listing annotated/signed tag that has no tagger info.
* Don't create new account when claimed OAuth identity is unknown.
+
The Claimed Identity feature was enabled to support old Google OpenID accounts,
that cannot be activated anymore. In some corner cases, when for example the URL
is not from the production Gerrit site, for example on a staging instance, the
OpenID identity may deviate from the original one. In case of mismatch, the lookup
of the user for the claimed identity would fail, causing a new account to be
created.
* Suggest to upgrade installed plugins per default during site initialization
to new Gerrit version.
+
The default was 'No' which resulted in some sites not upgrading core
plugins and running the wrong versions.

Fix creation of the administrator user on databases with pre-allocated
auto-increment column values.
+
When using a database configuration where auto-increment column values are
pre-allocated, it was possible that the 'Administrators' group was created
with an ID other than `1`. In this case, the created admin user was not added
to the correct group, and did not have the correct admin permissions.

Fix query for changes using a label with a group operator.
+
The `group` operator was being ignored when searching for changes with labels
because the search index does not contain group information.
* Fix online reindexing of changes that don't already exist in the index.
+
Changes are now always reloaded from the database during online reindex.
* Fix reading of plugin documentation.
+
Under some circumstances it was possible to fail with an IO error.
Documentation Updates
---------------------
* link:https://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=412[Issue 412]:
Update documentation of `commentlink.match` regular expression to clarify
that the expression is applied to the rendered HTML.
* Remove warning about unstable change edit REST API endpoints.
+
These endpoints should be considered stable since version 2.11.
* Document that `ldap.groupBase` and `ldap.accountBase` are repeatable.
