82c2196840 NEWS: Mention conversion of '-device' to JSON starting with QEMU-6.2
Normally this would be considered an internal detail which we don't
document in the news, but in this case I'd like to make people aware of
the change so that they preferrably report them ASAP.

1c0aa23a83 NEWS: document new hotplug enable/disable option on pci-root controller
A new 'target' subelement of the pci-root controller has been
introduced having a 'hotplug' property. This property can be used to
turn off or turn on the ability to hotplug/unplug devices to the slots
of the pci-root.

The new element can be used like this:

<controller type='pci' model='pci-root'>
   <target hotplug='off'/>
</controller>

This will turn off hotplug capability on the pci-root ports. To turn
the capability on, we set hotplug='on' above (which is also the
default).
