* Consolidate transpiler pass port related release notes

- Restored some deleted release notes.
- Fix formatting issues.

* Remove stray release notes

* Fix: Use plot directive effectively

* Remove all 1.2 release notes and build from 1.3.0b1

Due to how we end up branching 1.2.0 without a tag this is confusing
reno's version detection because on the stable/1.3 branch there is no
tag before 1.3.0b1 associated with any of the release notes for 1.2.0.
This commit just removes all the release notes to fix this.

Additionally, this corrects the earliest-version field in the sphinx
directive for reno so we include the notes associated with 1.3.0b1.

* Update transpiler pass porting note

* Copy edit most release notes

* Fix typos

* Slight reword in oxidize-transppiler-passes release note
