New compat note for #117054:

Suggested change
- [The new `impl From<{&,&mut} [T; N]> for Vec<T>` is known to cause some inference failures with overly-generic code.](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/117054) In those examples using the `tui` crate, the combination of `AsRef<_>` and `Into<Vec>` leaves the middle type ambiguous, and the new `impl` adds another possibility, so it now requires an explicit type annotation.
