Steps to reproduce the issue
This PR removes the RSS Feed loading on the Post Installation Messages page.
Reasoning behind this PR
When you view the "Post-installation Messages for Joomla CMS" page, it is always slow-er to load as it has to go out and retrieve and render the RSS feed of release news.
This also doesn't appear to be cached.
"Release news from the Joomla! Project" really has nothing to do with "Post-installation Messages for Joomla CMS"
When viewing "Post-installation Messages for Joomla CMS" there is no reason to be shown what the latest release news is, it has nothing to do with what the messages are.
It would make more sense that a CACHED version of the "Release news from the Joomla! Project" was a toggle-able module on the Home Dashboard (if it must be anywhere).

Question to the community: Shall we add another place in backend where you can see the release notes feed?
Joomla already alerts if a new version is available... that's good enough :)

after the last change I get a "class 'Factory' not found" error.
I don't even trust myself blindly
Factory is needed - adding back
Oops. Sorry I see its usage now.

<?php if (Factory::getApplication()->getIdentity()->authorise('core.edit.state', 'com_postinstall')) : ?>
