[ANNOUNCE] kvm-72 release

[Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>]

The most noticeable change in this release, by far, is the removal of 
the QEMU/KVM annotation on the qemu window in favor of a new 'info kvm' 
monitor command.  If you dig deeper, you will see improved stability for 
Windows guests, especially x64 variants.
