release_notes.rst: tentative section for 5.17
We have a critical mass of new patches that got Reviewed-by's from
Brendan.
These might not make it into 5.17, but having these features listed here
would be a good way to boost their visibility, regardless of what
version they finally end up going in.

+- ``kunit.py``'s parsing logic was largely rewritten, so the output looks
slightly different
- Parsed output is also now mostly printed out in real time.
- ``kunit.py`` with ``--raw_output`` will print output in real time.
+5.17 (tentative)
+================
+
+- Print out parsed test results in real time.
+
+- Allow tweaking Kconfig options from command-line, e.g.
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+ $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kconfig_add=MY_CONFIG=y
+
+- Reconfigure kunit kernel when the used ``kunitconfig`` has changed
+
+ - Before, if you removed an entry from ``.kunitconfig``, ``kunit.py`` would
+ not reconfigure, so your edit would have no effect.
+
+ - This now also works if you remove a ``--kconfig_add`` flag.
+
+- Print out parameters as sub-test cases (both in raw and parsed output), e.g.:
+
+.. code-block::
