2.7.0 Upgrade Experience & Blog Feedback

[jrr]

A handful of things popped up during the 2.7.0 upgrade that you ought to know about (blog post):

• The "check out our GitHub release page" link is bad (heroui/releases/tag/v2.7.0 -> heroui/releases/tag/%40heroui%2Freact%402.7.0)
• Removing SelectItem's value prop was not identified as a breaking change, but it definitely is, in the sense that existing apps will see new TypeScript errors that they have to address. ( fix: SelectItem, ListboxItem, and AutocompleteItem not to accept value props #4653 )
• Users of DatePicker will need to update their version of @internationalized/date from 3.6 to 3.7 to avoid new errors. (Hopefully this will be improved in the future, but for now it really needs to be highlighted in the upgrade guidance.)
• The release blog identifies the removal of dateInputClassNames as a breaking change (👍), but doesn't tell you how to migrate your usage (👎)

Each of these could probably be separate GitHub issues, but I wanted to highlight them all in one place, to shine some light on this upgrade not being a great experience overall.
