Subject: [PATCH] docs: add BreakingChanges to TECH_DOCS target
Message-ID: <pull.1921.git.git.1742308900290.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

```
From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk>

When BreakingChanges.txt was added in 57ec9254eb9 (docs: introduce
document to announce breaking changes, 2024-06-14) there was no
corresponding change to the Makefile to build it. Fix that by adding it
to the TECH_DOCS target.
