Subject: Documentation/HOWTO: info about interface changes should CC linux-api@...r

The "Documentation" section of this file mentions that when an
interface change is made, I should be CCed with info about the change
(so that man-pages can document it).  Additionally request that this
info be CCed to the new linux-api@...r.kernel.org list.
