Add Geo validation tests docs page with initial content

Nick Nguyen requested to merge docs/geo-validation-tests into master

What does this MR do?

Adds a page to the Administrator Geo docs section detailing recent update/installation tests. The Geo team performs manual testing and validation on common deployment configurations to ensure that Geo works when upgrading between minor GitLab versions and major PostgreSQL database versions.

As mentioned in #214576 (closed), we think customers and our own support team would find it valuable to see:

  • what we personally validated
  • the problems we ran into and how we resolved them
  • the issues that we created
