[issue15260] Mention how to order Misc/NEWS entries

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo <merwok at netwok.org> added the comment:

The whole file is ordered with newest on top (newest Python version), so I guess it’s implicit for all committers that sections are also ordered with newest on top.  It does not actually matter; the contents of one “what’s new in Python W.XyZ” are not ordered.

A nice trick to make Mercurial’s automatic file merge work is to put your entry after the first or the first two entries, so that if you commit, then pull new changesets and merge, the merge will success automatically.
