Move the current latest release 0.83-stable to legacy

[vineethkuttan]

Description

Ahead of the 0.84 release, we are updating the current latest stable version to the legacy.

Type of Change

• This change requires a documentation update

Why

Move the current latest release 0.82-stable to legacy

What

Refer https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-windows/wiki/How-to-promote-a-release#promoting-a-preview-to-latest

1. Move the current latest release 0.XX-stable to legacy
   To prevent older branches from being published as latest we need to change the tag they publish as. To do that:

• Check out the current branch for latest (the one before preview) (i.e. git checkout 0.XX-stable)
• Make sure your branch is up-to-date with the microsoft/react-native-windows repo
• Create a new branch for the PR (i.e. git checkout -b promoteXX)
• Run yarn promote-release --release legacy --rnVersion 0.XX
• Create a PR with the generated commits to the latest branch (i.e. git push -u origin promoteXX)
• After the PR is merged, wait for (or kick off, if you haven't set the automatic trigger) a new Publish run for the 0.XX-stable branch
• After the Publish completes, wait for (or kick off, if you haven't set the automatic trigger) a new NuGet Release run for the 0.XX-stable branch (be sure, when running this manually, to select the correct Publish pipeline run under Resources > Publish [Publish])
