RelNotes/2.54.0: fix typos and grammar

Fix various issues in the release notes -- missing/wrong articles, typo,
indentation, quote consistency, and wording improvement or corrections.

Other than the indentation fix for "The way combined list-object filter
options...", this patch is much easier to view with --color-words.
