2ac78307af docs: Clarify our stance on backported packages
The repositories containing them are usually offered with lower
guarantees, so we don't consider them when it comes to figuring
out the minimum targeted version of our dependencies.

78cffd450a docs: Spell out our policy concerning minor releases
We've already applied this policy on multiple occasions, but it's
good to have it written down so that there can be no confusion.

4ec665d360 docs: platforms: Simplify support policy
We discuss Linux, FreeBSD and macOS separately, and we even go as
far as splitting Linux distros into short-lifetime and long-lifetime,
when ultimately the same two priciples apply everywhere: we don't
want to support a platform longer than its vendor does, and in cases
where the vendor support is extremely long we need to have a
time-based escape hatch.
