Clarify and document supported platform on GDK

Overview

In gitlab-org/quality/engineering-productivity/team#229 (closed), we discussed distinguishing the supported platforms for GDK into 4 different levels. Quoting the @godfat-gitlab's suggestion at gitlab-org/quality/engineering-productivity/team#229 (comment 1430545364):

I suggest we change "Supported platforms" to:

  • GitLab maintained supported platforms
  • Wider community maintained supported platforms
  • Reasonable efforts supported platforms
  • Known non-working platforms

What we're currently maintaining go into "GitLab maintained supported platforms".

The goal of this issue is to document and make it clear which platforms are known to be working, actively maintained, supported by community, and what level of support for a platform the community can expect.
