18.04 proposed release notes

[Ahmad Samir]

Regarding the email on kde-devel ML about the 18.04 release notes, I've
composed this list; (since I am not one of the official maintainers of
konsole, I didn't post it to the Etherpad).

@Kurt, you can have a look at it, and vet it as needed:

https://phabricator.kde.org/D11184

Default to showing the tab bar only when needed

New Feature 4

Important bugfix 8
Match xterm behaviour when pressing Ctrl+Backspace
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=391075
(this ^ isn't really that important but it's not a visible change for
users; mentioning it here so that users who actually care about that escape
sequence can start using it)

Important bugfix 12

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=355106
(again not that important)
