  Mention that gfx1030/gfx1100 are now supported.

As noted in another thread, LLVM 15's assembler is now required, before 
LLVM 13.0.1 would do. (Alternatively, disabling gfx1100 support would 
do.) Hence, the added link to the install documentation.

Comments, suggestions?

Tobias

I'm happy with the technical correctness of this, but I'm uncertain if 
"which required an update of the default build requirements" is the sort 
of wording we like in the changelog?

Perhaps like this?

   Initial support for the AMD Radeon <code>gfx1030</code> (RDNA2) and
   <code>gfx1100</code> (RDNA3) devices has been added.  LLVM 15+
   (assembler and linker) is required to support gfx1100.
