Fixes: #61955
Refs: #61840 (comment)

Clarifies in How to backport a pull request to a release line > Manual process document section, that the Backport-PR-URL is added automatically. Currently the document says:

The Backport-PR-URL metadata does need to be added to the commit, but this will be done later.

which has been incorrectly interpreted as meaning that the submitter needs to add it.
