Summary

As suggested by pouria on the current mailing list, I'm proposing
apatch to switch the ddefault for RFC 7217 stableaddress support
to on.

I also wrote an UPDATING note, I hope the wording is correct and
clear enough.

The patch I submitted was missing a part. This is the updated and correct version.

@zlei Thanks for the suggestion, I'll add that to the commit message.
