Folds the 209 fragments in .alfonso/release-notes/next/ (inventory: 330 first-parent merges in v0.62.0..0ae448f03f) plus #737's return_paths note into .alfonso/release-notes/v0.63.0.md, and empties next/.

Sets ANNOUNCEMENT_VERSION = "0.63.0" and new ANNOUNCEMENT_FEATURES in both plugins. Pi's ANNOUNCEMENT_VERSION had become PLUGIN_VERSION (77cb480890), which re-shows the dialog on every patch release and fails release.sh's version check; it is the release literal again.

Held until the notes and dialog text are approved.


Summary by cubic

Publishes the v0.63.0 release notes: folds the fragments in .alfonso/release-notes/next/ into .alfonso/release-notes/v0.63.0.md, includes the return_paths note from #737, and clears the queue. Lines for features that need unreleased CortexKit parts (runon, the gh shim, Synapse, daemon catalogs, codemode, phone, and worker) are omitted.

Sets ANNOUNCEMENT_VERSION = "0.63.0" and the new ANNOUNCEMENT_FEATURES in both plugins. Pi's announcement version had drifted to the PLUGIN_VERSION literal, which would re-show the dialog on every patch release and fail release.sh's version check; it is the release literal again, and Pi's announcement tests now expect the announcement version rather than the package version.

Held until the notes and dialog text are approved.
