api-docs: Update avatar_url descriptions for feature level 163 change.
Updates the descriptions of the `avatar_url` field in message and user objects to be clear that the current user must have access to the other user's real email address in order for the value to ever be `null`. Also adds a bullet point to the API changelog feature level 163 entry about this change.
