Require clear descriptions both for feature and breaking PRs prior to the merge (#28112)

When writing the release blog, it is really annoying and time-consuming
to re-discover and write down how a feature behaves and capture a
screenshot of it, for every single feature merged since the last
release.
This should not be the responsibility of maintainers, but rather of the
person implementing a feature in the first place.
They know best how to use the feature and how to gather screenshots for
it.
Similarly for breaking changes and their effects.

As such, let's require everything to be up-to-date and easily
understandable before merging features or breaking changes.

#### How to handle breaking PRs? #### How to handle breaking PRs?
If your PR has a breaking change, you must add a `BREAKING` section to your PR summary, e.g. If your PR has a breaking change, you must add two things to the summary of your PR:
``` 1. A reasoning why this breaking change is necessary
2. A `BREAKING` section explaining in simple terms (understandable for a typical user) how this PR affects users and how to mitigate these changes. This section can look for example like
```md
## :warning: BREAKING :warning: ## :warning: BREAKING :warning:
``` ```
To explain how this will affect users and how to mitigate these changes. Breaking PRs will not be merged as long as not both of these requirements are met.
