Description

@abread

This change (#58637) recently bit me when upgrading Go, and it left me mad looking for bugs in data transmission when the different keys were the problem.

I gained the habit of reading release notes (at least for major upgrades) to avoid issues, but only the change to the constant-time is mentioned.
As it changes existing behavior, I believe it should be in the release notes, so that no one suffers the same fate :)
