11u: Fix request process & Where to push?

[Man Cao]

I think it is better to spell out this push policy on one of the
documentation sites, e.g.:
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/JDKUpdates/JDK11u
https://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk-updates/

New contributors (like me) may not be subscribed to jdk-updates-dev@ when
these kinds of announcement for policy change were made.
Also given that there is no jdk8u-dev or jdk12u-dev, the distinction in
11u's policy is worth being listed at more obvious places.
