Hm, it looks like this is inconsistent with other announcements, as
those have the "contrib" prefix[1][2].

I think in this specific case, `ltree` is the data type found in the
`contrib/ltree` extension.

You raise a good point, which is in the release announcement, should we
prefix contrib modules with "contrib"? Perhaps instead of shorthand we
spell it out, e.g. "Several fixes for the `pageinspect` module..."
