debian, redhat: updating changelog for new release

8.4 Release Overview

- New BGP [command](https://docs.frrouting.org/en/latest/bgp.html#clicmd-neighbor-A.B.C.D-X-X-X-X-WORD-soo-EXTCOMMUNITY) (`neighbor PEER soo`) to configure SoO to prevent routing loops and suboptimal routing on dual-homed sites.
- Command `debug bgp allow-martian` replaced to `bgp allow-martian-nexthop` because previously we allowed using martian next-hops when debug is turned on.
- Implement `BGP Prefix Origin Validation State Extended Community` [rfc8097](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc8097/)
- Implement `Route Leak Prevention and Detection Using Roles in UPDATE and OPEN Messages` [rfc9234](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9234/)
- BMP L3VPN support
- PIMv6 support
- MLD support
- New [command](https://docs.frrouting.org/en/latest/basic.html#clicmd-allow-reserved-ranges) to enable using reserved IPv4 ranges as normal addresses for BGP next-hops, interface addresses, etc.
- As usual, lots of bugs and memory leaks were fixed \m/
