NEWS: document possible breakage from saved-search format change
If the user has unsorted or alphabetically sorted saved-searches these should continue to work. If they have some custom lisp sort function then it will need updating to work with the new saved-sort format. Document this, and how the updating should be done. Also roll in fixes for the markdown in the first part of the NEWS suggested by Tomi: change `just work' to *just work* and removed periods from the end of subtitle lines.
