[PATCH] Documentation: stable: Add rule on what kind of patches are accepted

[Tudor Ambarus]

The list of rules on what kind of patches are accepted, and which ones
are not into the “-stable” tree, did not mention anything about new
features and let the reader use its own judgement. One may be under the
impression that new features are not accepted at all, but that's not true:
new features are not accepted unless they fix a reported problem.
Update documentation with missing rule.
