Clarification on supported versions

[mamccorm]

Is your feature request related to a problem?/Why is this needed
I'm looking to find an updated support policy, but the information on this page looks to be outdated: https://kubernetes-csi.github.io/docs/external-snapshotter.html. Particularly it does not list v7 or v8, so guessing its due an update.

Describe the solution you'd like in detail
It'd be great if someone could confirm what the current supported versions are, and if we could document that somewhere

Describe alternatives you've considered
I've looked around but haven't found any others sources of info besides whats linked above

Many thanks

Hey @mamccorm!
Noticed this issue when passing by 😄

However, I have seen that the information you are looking for is available under the github releases for example for v7.0.0. Moreover I agree that the documentation is problematic and it seems many of the other projects are also struggling with maintaining the compatibility matrix.

I think the flow could potentially be automated when a new release is done or this documentation will always lack behind.

Thanks for stopping by and adding some insights :) In this instance i'm hoping to find an authoritative source that confirms which versions of external-snapshotter are being still actively supported at a given time (i.e not end of life, receiving patch releases etc), as opposed to the compatibility matrix.

I'd be happy to make a contribution to a README / doc here if someone could confirm
