issues: i386-baseline incompatibility for some Rust packages

Document i386 architecture baseline incompatibility for some Rust packages (non-upgrade-specific issue)

Ref: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=973414#191 (I didn't attend the meeting mentioned, but figured I'd offer to provide the supporting documentation)

There's also #1033065 on i386 baseline problems.

Specifics are essential here; a warning that some software will fail on some hardware isn't much help. This might also be a good place to put a notice saying "if you use Debian on i386, have you considered joining the i386-porters team to ensure it continues to exist as a release architecture?"

Ok, yep. I've taken the wrong approach with these edits. The release notes should instead be updated to say that the baseline itself has been adjusted (in other words: to indicate that some systems have dropped below the previous i386 baseline).

Yes, we need to document that the baseline effectively bumped. We should have a text similar to the previous one (stretch?).

Agreed; that looks like 1ff4c306 to me.

Unless someone else is already planning to write this up, I'll draft-write some text and suggest that to #1033065 (and cc i386-porters?) to gather suggestions / consensus.

I was more thinking of 4877901a and follow-up commits.

Ok, thank you. After some more thought, I think I've been getting a large enough proportion of the details incorrect re: i386 to step away from attempting further documentation suggestions, at least for a while.

(I don't think I'm short on opinions.. but those aren't necessarily useful (and maybe counterproductive) compared to active involvement and motivation in the arch/port)
