Note

Low Risk
Low risk documentation-only change that clarifies Redis Cloud version support and upgrade behavior; no product code paths are modified.

Overview
Adds a new March 2026 Redis Cloud changelog entry highlighting Redis 8.4 availability on Pro and introducing automatic minor version upgrades for Redis 8.4+ (with Pro opt-out).

Updates Version management docs to define LTS vs STS support models, expand the supported versions table to include the support model column, and document plan-specific behavior for minor auto-upgrades plus an FAQ covering opt-out, EOL forced upgrades, and downgrade limitations.

Written by Cursor Bugbot for commit 481c439. This will update automatically on new commits. Configure here.

It must have overwritten when I merged main into my branch - I just put it back.
