Add a project versioning policy modeled on Spark's, covering the pre-1.0 release model, compatibility commitments for the public Scala/Java API and query result semantics, Spark version support, release cadence, and the road to 1.0 LTS.

Which issue does this PR close?
Closes #4317.
Rationale for this change
Comet has no documented versioning policy. New users and downstream
projects have no way to know what compatibility guarantees a Comet
release provides, how often releases ship, which Spark patches are
supported, or what 1.0 will mean. This PR adds an initial policy
modeled on Apache Spark's, adapted to Comet's pre-1.0 status and
faster release cadence.
