doc: fix getchaintxstats fields in release-process.md
also:
- use the getblockheader (and getblockhash) RPCs instead of getblockchaininfo
for updating the nMinimumChainWork and defaultAssumeValid consensus params
- use "RPC" consistently
- update the example PR from 17002 to 20263
- improve a link with a named anchor tag
