[DOCS] Unknown configs throw error in npm@12.0.0 release notes - re-open #9812

Description

@MikeMcC399

Situation

The release notes for npm@12.0.0 still incorrectly state:

unknown configs in .npmrc, unknown CLI flags, abbreviated flags, and single-hyphen multi-char shorthands now throw instead of warning.

This statement is incorrect and is not aligned with the updated CHANGELOG 12.0.0 which now states:

unknown CLI flags, abbreviated flags, and single-hyphen multi-char shorthands now throw instead of warning. (Unknown .npmrc configs still warn by default; opt into erroring with the new strict-npmrc config.)

Suggestion

Correct also the release notes npm@12.0.0 concerning the description of handling unknown configs in .npmrc.

Note that this is not addressable through a PR. It requires direct write access to the repo in order to edit a release note manually.
