I'm not sure that you need to add clifford_decompose and cnotdihedral_decompose, since they were deprecated in a previous release.
Quaternion was moved inside quantum_info.

This is true, but I'm restoring them here because 0.46.0 is special. We're documenting this release as being fully compatible with 0.45.x and it's primarily about just adding the deprecation warnings for API changes coming in 1.0.0. Removing these as part of 0.46.0 would break that messaging because if someone was still using the deprecated qiskit.quantum_info.synthesis.clifford_decompose() function when they upgraded from 0.45.2 to 0.46.0 it would break. If 0.46.0 was a normal minor version release this would have been totally fine, 0.46.0 is really just a special edge case as the last minor version in the 0.* release series.

Here is a first pass on the release notes, mostly typos. One comment is that the CI artifact I used to check the rendered notes didn't seem to catch this new file, the prelude didn't show up and they were labeled as 0.45.0-34:
Anyways, the text is the same so it was still helpful, and it might have been my bad, just wanted to raise it in case it was not my bad.

This commit prepares the 0.46.0 release, this involves 2 steps first changing all the version numbers to 0.46.0 from 0.45.x and secondly updating the release notes to prepare them for publishing. There are some larger than normal changes to the release notes made in this PR. Because of the nature of how 0.46 was developed in parallel to 0.45.x, the merge commits used to sync changes from stable/0.45 to stable/0.46 cause reno to be unable to determine which tag a release note is associated with reliably. To ensure reno is able to determine all the 0.46.0 release notes go together this commit squashes all the applicable release notes into a single new file (along with adding a prelude). As part of this process the release notes were edited for consistency and accuracy. Some other changes to note are: - The release note about the deprecation of qobj input to UnitarySimulatorPy was removed as it's been subsumed by the deprecation of UnitarySimulatorPy - The release note about the removal of the deprecated `clifford_decompose` and `cnotdihedral_decompose` was removed and those functions were restored as breaking API changes were not allowed in this release. Similarly the qiskit.synthesis.Quaternion path was restored. - Bumped the cibuildwheel version used to build wheels to v2.16.5 which is needed to fix compatibility with newer powershell releases now that the Github actions windows images bumped the powershell version installed.

I think this is ready for review so we can tag 0.46.0 once it's merged. The only open question is if we need to do anything related to: #11512 (comment) |

I pushed up a commit that adds a timeline into all the decorators. There's other use of |
