[PATCH v3 1/2] workflow: process/changes.rst: sort and cleanup list

[Manuel Ebner <manuelebner@airmail.cc>]

It is a pain in the ass to compare the software versions on the running
system with the minimal required versions (process/changes.rst).
Sorting both lists the same way makes side-by-side comparisons a simple task.

add gdb version 7.2 as mentioned in:
 Documentation/process/debugging/gdb-kernel-debugging.rst
 scripts/gdb/vmlinux-gdb.py

sort table of required software versions alphabetically
add reference to scripts/ver_linux
needn't -> do not need to
