We use "If non-nil", not "If true". And similarly for "false".

This NEWS entry should go to where the change in "C-h b"s behavior is
described in NEWS (on emacs-29 branch), and should be reworded to tell
users how to get the previous behavior back ("To get the previous
behavior back, customize ...").

This should be "29.1". Since the behavior change was introduced in
Emacs 29, we need to add this option in the same version.
