Documentation/HOWTO: info about interface changes should CC linux-api@vger

Browse Source 
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@vger.kernel.org list.
