High Level Overview of Change
Any PR which impacts the API should document those API changes in API-CHANGELOG.md.
That documentation should be added directly, as part of the relevant PR itself. PR authors should write (at least) the initial draft of that API-CHANGELOG entry and push that change to their PR branch so that the documentation change is made alongside the code changes proposed by the PR.
Context of Change
A number of API changes have been made without updating API-CHANGELOG.md.
Type of Change
[TRIVIAL]: modifies markdown template only; does not touch any C++ code
