This PR introduces a comprehensive compatibility policy document that addresses issue #2200 by establishing clear guidelines for version support and removal in Astronomer Cosmos. The policy provides transparency for users planning upgrades and clear criteria for contributors proposing version changes.

  • Adds a compatibility policy document covering Python, Apache Airflow, and dbt Core version support
  • Defines objective criteria for when version support will be removed (based on EOL dates and dependency support)
  • Provides guidance for both users (upgrade planning, compatibility checking) and contributors (version changes, test matrix updates)

Looks great, @pankajastro , thank you very much!

Some of the information here is redundant with what we set in pyproject.yml (Python versions supported), but time will tell us the cost of maintaining the redundancy. It's a great starting point.
