Do we usually document when we just fix compiler warnings ? I'd just
personally leave out, or just say "Fixed some compiler warnings that
appear with GCC 8" and leave it at that.
We usually document when we make a previously unusable OS / compiler
usable. Now, if GCC 8 only reported warnings then that didn't really
affect the ability to build from release tarballs, since we don't
enable -Werror there; on the other hand, I don't see why we wouldn't
document the fact that the latest and greatest GCC can be used to
build libvirt. It seems release notes worthy to me, especially if we
only spend a few words on it.
