Add release notes for OTP-18.0+
The version 18.3.4.3 is missing and seems to have had no announcement or README, I do not know why.

+Patch Package: OTP 18.0.2
+Git Tag: OTP-18.0.2
+Date: 2015-07-08
+Trouble Report Id: OTP-12889, OTP-12890, OTP-12892, OTP-12894,
+ OTP-12895, OTP-12896
+Seq num: seq12885
+System: OTP
+Release: 18
+Application: erts-7.0.2, runtime_tools-1.9.1
+Predecessor: OTP 18.0.1
+
+ Check out the git tag OTP-18.0.2, and build a full OTP system
+ including documentation. Apply one or more applications from this
+ build as patches to your installation using the 'otp_patch_apply'
+ tool. For information on install requirements, see descriptions for
+ each application version below.
+
+ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
+ --- erts-7.0.2 ------------------------------------------------------
+ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ The erts-7.0.2 application can be applied independently of other
+ applications on a full OTP 18 installation.
+
+ --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
+
+ OTP-12889 Application(s): erts
+ Related Id(s): seq12885
+
+ A process could end up in an inconsistent half exited
+ state in the runtime system without SMP support. This
+ could occur if the processes was traced by a port that
+ it also was linked to, and the port terminated
+ abnormally while handling a trace message for the
+ process.
+
+ This bug has always existed in the runtime system
+ without SMP support, but never in the runtime system
+ with SMP support.
+
+
+ OTP-12894 Application(s): erts
+
+ Removed unnecessary copying of data when retrieving
+ corrected Erlang monotonic time.
+
+
+ OTP-12895 Application(s): erts
+
+ *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
+
+ Changed default OS monotonic clock source chosen at
+ build time. This in order to improve performance. The
+ behavior will now on most systems be that (both OS and
+ Erlang) monotonic time stops when the system is
+ suspended.
+
+ If you prefer that monotonic time elapse during suspend
+ of the machine, you can pass the command line argument
+ --enable-prefer-elapsed-monotonic-time-during-suspend
+ to configure when building Erlang/OTP. The
+ configuration stage will try to find such a clock
+ source, but might not be able to find it. Note that
+ there might be a performance penalty associated with
+ such a clock source.
+
+
+ OTP-12896 Application(s): erts
+
+ erlang:system_info(end_time) returned a faulty value on
+ 32-bit architectures.
+
+
+ --- Improvements and New Features ---
+
+ OTP-12892 Application(s): erts
+
+ The configure command line argument
+ --enable-gettimeofday-as-os-system-time has been added
+ which force usage of gettimeofday() for OS system time.
+ This will improve performance of os:system_time() and
+ os:timestamp() on MacOS X, at the expense of worse
+ accuracy, resolution and precision of Erlang monotonic
+ time, Erlang system time, and OS system time.

+ Full runtime dependencies of erts-7.0.2: kernel-4.0, sasl-2.4,
+ stdlib-2.5

+ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
+ --- runtime_tools-1.9.1 ---------------------------------------------
+ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ The runtime_tools-1.9.1 application can be applied independently of
+ other applications on a full OTP 18 installation.
+
+ --- Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions ---
+
+ OTP-12890 Application(s): runtime_tools
+ Related Id(s): seq12885
+
+ The trace_file_drv did not handle EINTR correct which
+ caused it to fail when the runtime system received a
+ signal.
