version: 23.11-rc0

Start a new release cycle with empty release notes.

The ABI version becomes 24.0.
The map files are updated to the new ABI major number (24).
The ABI exceptions are dropped and CI ABI checks are disabled because
compatibility is not preserved.

The telemetry and vhost libraries compat code is cleaned up in next
commits.
