Simplify release-note links to back branches.

Now that https://www.postgresql.org/docs/release/ is populated,
replace the stopgap text we had under "Prior Releases" with
a pointer to that archive.

Retiring a Branch
=================
After support is dropped for an old branch, remove the link for it
in HEAD's doc/src/sgml/release.sgml. If the newest back branch hasn't
yet reached GA release, do the same there. (Given our current development
calendar, the latter should seldom be necessary.)
* Get the buildfarm's 'branches_of_interest.txt' file updated to remove
the retired branch.
