RELEASE.md does not mention the change to allow adding docs to reexported items #84007
Description
At some point between Rust 1.34.0 and 1.39.0, the ability to add documentation to reexported items was added, but I can't find it mentioned in either the RELEASE notes or the rust-lang.org blog posts.
Maybe this should be mentioned in the RELEASE notes for the version that added that feature?
I have a foo crate that I use to test stuff, and used cargo +1.39.0 doc to document this:
/// Ooooh, ghost!
pub use std::marker::PhantomData;

This was changed in 1.38 (coincidentally also the release rust-std spiked from a 61.2 MB to 173.3 MB download).
@rodrimati1992 are you interested in making a PR?

@jyn514 Sure, what are the PRs that made this possible?

Oh I have no idea 😆 I found it by bisecting.

Looks like #63048 is it
