Update Runner versions docs for GitLab.com

Katrin Leinweber requested to merge docs-gitlab-com-runner-versions into master

What does this MR do?

On the old dashboard, Runners uptime & version had No data and generally this note

This dashboard is deprecated and we're aiming to replace it with smaller, dedicated dashboards …

I guess that the "ci-runners: Deployment overview" one is the best replacement here.

  • In the Shared runners section (or elsewhere): Would it make sense to clarify our deployment strategy for Runners on GitLab.com? A large Silver customer internally asked, whether it's expected that shared Runners are at v14 even before the 22nd.

Author's checklist (required)

Do not add the feature, frontend, backend, ~"bug", or database labels if you are only updating documentation. These labels will cause the MR to be added to code verification QA issues.

When applicable:

Review checklist

All reviewers can help ensure accuracy, clarity, completeness, and adherence to the Documentation Guidelines and Style Guide.

1. Primary Reviewer

  • Review by a code reviewer or other selected colleague to confirm accuracy, clarity, and completeness. This can be skipped for minor fixes without substantive content changes.

2. Technical Writer

  • Technical writer review. If not requested for this MR, must be scheduled post-merge. To request for this MR, assign the writer listed for the applicable DevOps stage.

For more information about labels, see Technical Writing workflows - Labels.

For suggestions that you are confident don't need to be reviewed, change them locally and push a commit directly to save others from unneeded reviews. For example:

  • Clear typos, like this is a typpo.
  • Minor issues, like single quotes instead of double quotes, Oxford commas, and periods.

For more information, see our documentation on Merging a merge request.

3. Maintainer

  1. Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the above reviews. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
  2. Ensure a release milestone is set.
  3. If there has not been a technical writer review, create an issue for one using the Doc Review template.
