  • docs: Add Supported Platforms document #1776
  • Make platform order consistent. (We would want to change the generator to not use alphabetic order if we want to change this across all locations.)
  • Fix newline formatting.
  • Try to be more specific about this being about runtime support.
    • There might be more we can do here... will have to look at this again in a bit to see if it's clear enough.
  • Include link to install doc in addition to "raw" binary downloads.
  • Remove info from table that AFAIK an ordinary reader has no need to know.
  • Remove "+", column title already mentions minimum.
    • I'm skeptical we truly want to claim that we support every version above a value. But given the clear and limited definition of "support" in this context I don't think it's a pressing issue.
  • Remove OpenSSL 1.1.0, no longer supported.
  • Use same/similar support wording as other sections.
