docs(release): Add v1.0.8 notes; wire mgmt ping status into B and C

Script A: the baseline ping window is 30 s rather than 45, and the log
is cleared afterwards so Script B starts from nothing.

Script B: `status` after `start`, and Script C: `status` before `stop`
plus a `cat` of the report. The status line shows both pids and the
replies received per NIC, so a dead link is visible while the soak is
still running instead of only at the end.

docs/release-notes/v1.0.8.md written in the house format.
