[wwwdocs] gcc-12/changes.html: GCN - add TI mode, mention -foffload(-options)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 639 bytes --]

This documents AMD GCN's new much-more complete TI-mode
(__int128_t) support, that was as v2 just posted by Julian
and should get committed very soon.

Additionally, -foffload= (previously undocumented) has been
split into -foffload= and -foffload-options= and now has a
documentation. Hence, both flags are now in the release notes,
linking to their documentation. (Link are broken until the
next cron run.)

Comments? Concerns? Remarks?
