ref-manual: Added the migration section for 1.6.
This commit is really only 1/2 of the section (the final half).
I put in the first half in a previous commit and pushed it before
realizing those changes were in that commit. The commit that
the first half of the migration changes are in is
88a075e6306349e5f8c0d53b5288ef1e64956cd3.
