@pypa/pip-committers Does anyone else have any problem with this? This has always been our policy and I see no reason not to document it. Assuming no-one objects, I'll merge this (probably tomorrow). |

Reverts are cheap so... I'm gonna eagerly squash-merge this. If someone has concerns, we can iterate on this. :) |

Why
Since pip is a widely used library by the python community, it would be nice to have some formal documentation out there making clear what versions are supported.
What these changes do
Adds a section to the release-process page titled Supported Versions, along with language making clear that the latest major version of pip is the only supported version. It also encourages folks make regular updates.
Other considerations:
Since this is a documentation update, I wasn't sure if this warrants a news file. If folks feel its warranted please let me know and I'll add that to this PR!
