#456 docs(whats-new): replace seed content with real release notes + roadmap

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: Akarsh-Hegde

Summary

Follow-up to [#450], which merged before this content fix landed on the branch (the commit was pushed a few minutes after the merge, so it never made it into pre-main). This carries just that one commit, cherry-picked cleanly on top of current pre-main.

The whats-new.json seed content shipped in [#450] was placeholder-accurate but not verified against real release history. This replaces it after cross-checking every entry against gh release view and merged/open PRs:

• Added the missing v1.71.0 entry (the actual latest release) with highlights and fixes drawn from its real changelog.
• Added v1.69.1 as its own entry and moved its "external links not opening" fix off v1.69.0, which never actually shipped it.
• Roadmap, sourced from real PRs instead of guessing:
• "Choose your own AI provider" and "See and install updates from the dashboard" — from merged/open PRs [#444]/#454 and [#448].
• "Idle & sleep detection" corrected from in-progress to planned (no active PR found).
• "Lighter on-device AI footprint" reworded to considering, since idle-based model eviction already shipped in [#292] and the old copy implied it hadn't happened yet.

Test plan

• cargo fmt --check, cargo clippy -- -D warnings, cargo test (includes whats_new_json_parses) all pass.
• npm run build in ui/ passes.
• JSON validated, no em-dash/en-dash/double-hyphen violations.
• Manually reviewed in a local tauri dev run before pushing.
