There is surely more that can be done but I'll knock that out as I make more changes. |

bazelbuild#4005 removed `crate_universe/extension.bzl`, the deprecated re-export of `crate_universe/extensions.bzl`, as part of dropping WORKSPACE support. Downstream projects may still load `crate` from that path via `use_extension`, so any build that resolves `rules_rust` 0.71.0 with such a module in its graph fails. `protobuf` 35.1, the newest release on BCR, is one such module. Restore the shim and print a deprecation warning at load time, giving downstream modules a short window to migrate to `extensions.bzl`, e.g.: - protocolbuffers/protobuf#28226. Closes bazelbuild#4111.

…build#4180) ## Summary WORKSPACE support was removed in bazelbuild#4005 (released in 0.71.0). The release notes template was not updated at the time, so every release since 0.71.0 (0.71.0, 0.71.1, 0.71.2, 0.71.3, 0.72.0) has advertised `http_archive` WORKSPACE snippets that don't work. This removes all WORKSPACE sections from the template so future release notes only show the Bzlmod setup. Also fixes a pre-existing missing `</details>` closing tag in the Prost extension section.
