As discussed in #2558 (comment), I'm opening this PR to suggest a few updates/clarifications to the release checklist document:

- Clarify which account to use when posting to social media about the release.
- Clarify which Slack channel to post to.
- Replace "Month in WordPress" with a Marketing team amplify request as the former doesn't exist anymore and was replaced by the latter

OMG.... just realized that I left a comment and then forgot to "finish" the review, so the comment is visible only to me and nobody else... darn... my bad....

- [ ] Post about it in Slack.
- [ ] Submit for ["Month in WordPress"][month-in-wp].
- [ ] Tweet, toot, etc about the release from your personal account (there is no official WPCS account).
- [ ] Post about it in #core channel on the WordPress.org Slack.

Should this also mention posting in other channels when relevant ? Think: #plugin-review if a sniff was added in a release which was requested by the plugin review team, #core-docs if significant updates were made to the documentation ruleset ?
And that there is no need to post in the #core-coding-standard channel as that gets an automated release notification ?

I think the wording can be kept quite generic.

Plus fixes a line break issue in one of the items of the release section by adding to spaces to the line before it to force a soft line break.
