Documentation: add platform support policy

Supporting many platforms is only possible when we have the right tools to
ensure that support.

Teach platform maintainers how they can help us to help them, by
explaining what kind of tooling support we would like to have, and what
level of support becomes available as a result. Provide examples so that
platform maintainers can see what we're asking for in practice.

With this policy in place, we can make changes with stronger assurance
that we are not breaking anybody we promised not to. Instead, we can
feel confident that our existing testing and integration practices
protect those who care from breakage.
