Documentation

On this page, the Date is confusing. What does it represent? Doesn't seem to be the date the version was released. Is it the last date the documentation was updated?

The "Release" and "Date" fields are no longer needed in the What's New
pages, so I removed them from the template.

fix: remove Release and Date fields from whatsnew

python/release-tools template for "What's New" page automatically adds
a "Release" field and a "Date" field with the date set to "today", which
becomes the day the docs are built, which is forever increasing. This is
the topic of python/release-tools#34 which is
yet to be fixed. In the meantime, this commit fixes it manually.
