doc: Per-patch documentation absent since 9.1.2148 #19566

Description

@hseg

Is your feature request about something that is currently impossible or hard to do? Please describe the problem.
Since version 9.0.2190, version9.txt hasn't been updated with the per-patch Problem/Solution descriptions. This makes it harder to follow along with changes in vim's development.

Describe the solution you'd like
A return to the prior policy of documenting the patch history.

Describe alternatives you've considered
One could keep a copy of the vim Git repo and use its history-browsing features. However, this is a channel in parallel to the Vim releases -- another source to check and keep up to date, when the distribution work has already been done by packaging up a patch release.

Additional context
It may be I just couldn't find the ticket where it was decided to only provide the headline changes for 9.2 and above, but the presence of patches-after-9.2 suggests that that wasn't a policy change?
