Hello All!

When we release a new version that voluntarliy breaks compatibility with
previous versions, we must document it to hepl the uesr migrate more
easily.

In 2017.08, we broke the compatibility with previous versions because we
no longer accept an RPATH pointing to $(HOST_DIR)/usr/lib, even though
that would technically functional.

Add an appendix about that.

Changes v1 -> v2:
  - move all to a single file  (Thomas)
  - fix typoes  (Thomas)


Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
