Release notes

[rn:skip]

What does this PR do?

Adds new optional positional parameter to ci/integration_tests.sh split, so that we can tell it how many partitions to split the tests into. When this parameter is missing, it is assumed to be 2 for backward-compatibility.

Why is it important/What is the impact to the user?

No user impact.

This allows us to configure a larger quantity of integration spec splits so that we can run more jobs in parallel.
