Commit Message:
NEWS: Don't mention the change about Gold linker

I added it myself, but I think it's just too technical for a general
changelog. Especially as the first entry that users would read.

 #### 2.9.1 (XXXX-XX-XX)
 
- General:
-   - Avoid using the GNU Gold linker when building ScummVM, (unless the
-     --enable-gold option is given), since it has long-standing issues
-     on some platforms and is now deprecated upstream.

  Asylum:
    - Fixed crash in Sanitarium main menu, when moving the cursor to the
      top part of the screen.

 #### 2.9.1 (XXXX-XX-XX)
 
- Allgemein:
-   - Vermeide die Nutzung des GNU Gold-Linkers wenn ScummVM gebaut wird (sofern die Option --enable-gold
-     nicht genutzt wird), da er für anhaltende Probleme auf manchen Plattformen bekannt ist und
-	 seitens des Upstreams nicht mehr unterstützt wird.
+ AGS:
+   - Unterstützung für Geschwindigkeitsänderungen von Audio-Clips hinzugefügt.
+     Diese werden in einigen Spielen verwendet, um die Hintergrundmusik oder andere
+     Audio-Effekte zu verlangsamen.
+   - Fehler korrigiert, durch den in einigen Fällen Lautstärkeänderungen nicht korrekt
+     ausgelöst wurden (beispielsweise um die Musiklautstärke in Entwicklerkommentaren oder
+     wenn in der Blackwell-Serie ein Charakter spricht, zu verringern)
 
  Asylum:
    - Absturz im Hauptmenü von Sanitarium korrigiert, der auftritt, wenn der Cursor in den
