Update the Upgrading landing page #773

@dwelsch-esi

Description

@dwelsch-esi

Overview

The "Upgrading etcd clusters and applications" page seems redundant. The "Upgrading" link could goes straight to the main upgrade page, which contains the same information. There's no need to ever visit the Upgrading etcd clusters and applications page.

It might be worthwhile to do a little research and remove or archive unneeded and unsupported upgrade pages. Also, is an upgrade path over more than one point release supported? If so, does it require a series of upgrades, such as for example 3.3 > 3.4 > 3.5? If so, state this explicitly on the "Upgrading" landing page. If not, document the supported paths.

Audience: Operator

Suggested changes:

Remove the "Upgrading etcd clusters and applications" page and remove the link from the "Upgrading" main page. At the top of the "Upgrading" main page, document which upgrade paths are supported, recommended, deprecated, and unsupported. Provide instructions for upgrading over more than one point release, if necessary.
