How to create custom message on plugin update

This message is created by W3_Total_Cache->in_plugin_update_message() hooked to "in_plugin_update_message-$file"in wp_plugin_update_row().

It does some nifties to parse readme and display info from changelog, but overall you can just echo some stuff as with any other hook.
