docs: hold Mac/iOS changelog entries until the release is minted (#277)

The changelog announces on the next server deploy, but a native change
only reaches members once a build is downloadable (TestFlight / GitHub
Releases) — announcing before that is a broken promise. Native feature
PRs now ship without an entry; the release-minting PR adds one covering
the build. Pull the not-yet-deployed #276 entry accordingly (it returns
with the next Mac release; #273's entry already announced, water under
the bridge).
