Description of changes

This release fixes a "constant-timeness" issue with Clang >=14 that could leave applications using libsecp256k1 vulnerable to a timing side-channel attack. We strongly recommend any users of the library to upgrade if their code may end up being compiled with an affected version of Clang.
