APAR status

• New Features documentation shows a Donut Chart with Total label
  in the center that is not a feature available in a Pie
  Visualization converted to a Pie.  Reporting Chart documentation
  steps for converting Pie Visualization to a Donut do not match

  Pie Visualization to display a total label or in the center of
  Donut
