[release/1.7] Prepare for v1.7.15 release

[estesp]

Notes need to be recreated once #10037 merges. Fixes #10036 for release/1.7

[aojea]

is the release automated?
once this merge we'll have a 1.7.15?

@aojea not automated, release tags are signed by a maintainer. Notes are generated with https://github.com/containerd/release-tool and the Github release is automated once the signed tag is pushed.

If this release is primarily fixing a regression, I think we should mention that in the tag line instead of the normal various fixes.

Thanks @dmcgowan I was trying to get an idea of how long it can take , if was just after merging I will wait a bit more to update the kubernetes jobs before signing off today 😄

At this point it is all up to how fast the hamster wheels can run on the github action runners to generate the release :-} and hopefully no errors 😅
