[keycloak-dev] Updated release cadence

[Hynek Mlnarik]

Until now we have only supported database migration from Final to Final,
i.e. not from CR1 to .Final. So when a change happened in between CR1 and
Final, we did not care. What will be the supported path now? Will we
support migrating from Beta1 to Beta2 to Beta3 to Final or only from Final
to Final? I'd rather the latter but it seems we'll have to support the
former.
