[vtkusers] Announce: vtk 8.0.0.rc2 ready for testing

[David E DeMarle]

Yes thanks.

To make the release team aware of things (merge requests or issues) that
are important for the release, add the version number (8.0 in this case)
milestone in gitlab. Otherwise we won't necessarily know about it and will
miss it.

I'll add the milestone to this now.
