docs: add v0.0.90 release changelog

[jyaunches]

Summary

Add the canonical ## v0.0.90 entry to docs/changelog/2026-07-20.mdx before the release tag is planned.
The update also corrects the documented custom-image migration window so the compatibility fallback that first ships in v0.0.90 remains available until v0.0.91.

Changes

• Add the v0.0.90 summary and detailed release bullets for managed-image routing, provider-reset recovery, WhatsApp health reporting, and DGX Station guidance.
• Keep the newest release first in the shared dated changelog and use root-absolute links to the canonical OpenClaw routes.
• Correct docs/reference/commands.mdx to state that the legacy image route selector remains supported through v0.0.90 and is removed in v0.0.91.
• Release source summary:
  • #7264 -> docs/resources/prompt-assets/dgx-station.md, docs/changelog/2026-07-20.mdx: Record the versioned Station installer path, Nemotron 3 Ultra 550B default, and explicit DeepSeek override.
  • #7261 -> docs/get-started/dgx-station-preparation.mdx, docs/manage-sandboxes/recover-rebuild-sandboxes.mdx, docs/changelog/2026-07-20.mdx: Include the OpenIB, legacy recovery, and Additional Setup documentation follow-ups.
  • #7232 -> docs/changelog/2026-07-20.mdx: Document provider-reset recovery for wrapped OpenShell attachment diagnostics.
  • #7189 -> docs/reference/commands.mdx, docs/changelog/2026-07-20.mdx: Document the managed-image route-selector rename and correct its one-release migration window.
  • #7015 -> docs/changelog/2026-07-20.mdx: Document corrected OpenClaw WhatsApp health reporting.
• No additional user-facing page update is needed for #7193, #7110, #6783, or #7263 because they change contributor governance, internal CI or release automation, or editorial style without changing supported user behavior.
• #7242 and #7225 are already ancestors of and documented in v0.0.89, so this entry does not duplicate them despite their stale v0.0.90 labels.

Type of Change

• Code change (feature, bug fix, or refactor)
• Code change with doc updates
• Doc only (prose changes, no code sample modifications)
• Doc only (includes code sample changes)

Quality Gates

• Tests added or updated for changed behavior
• Existing tests cover changed behavior — justification: test/changelog-docs.test.ts validates the dated changelog heading, SPDX form, version order, and published links.
• Tests not applicable — justification:
• Docs updated for user-facing behavior changes
• Docs not applicable — justification:
• Sensitive paths changed (security, policy, credentials, preflight, onboarding, inference, runner, sandbox, or messaging)
• Sensitive-path review completed or maintainer-approved waiver recorded — reviewer/approval link/justification:
• Non-success, skipped, or missing CI check accepted by maintainer — check name, approval link, and follow-up issue:

DGX Station Hardware Evidence

• Tested on DGX Station
• Tested commit: Not applicable; this PR does not change scripts/prepare-dgx-station-host.sh or runtime behavior.
• Station profile/scenario: Not applicable.
• Result: Not applicable.
• Supporting evidence: Not applicable.

Verification

• PR description includes a Signed-off-by: line and every commit appears as Verified in GitHub
• Normal pre-commit, commit-msg, and pre-push hooks passed, or npm run check:diff passed when hooks were skipped or unavailable
• Targeted behavior tests pass for the current change set, or tests are marked not applicable above — npx vitest run test/changelog-docs.test.ts (6 passed).
• Applicable broad gate passed — npm test for broad runtime/test-harness changes; npm run check for repo-wide validation/coverage changes — command/result: Not run; this is a focused documentation-only change.
• Quality Gates section completed with required justifications or waivers
• No secrets, API keys, or credentials committed
• npm run docs builds without warnings (doc changes only) — passed with 0 errors and two unrelated baseline warnings for unauthenticated redirect checks and the existing light-mode contrast ratio.
• Doc pages follow the style guide (doc changes only)
• New doc pages include SPDX header and frontmatter (new pages only)
