This pull request updates the lifecycle documentation for Chef products to provide more detailed and accurate information about product deprecation and end-of-life (EOL) dates.

Lifecycle table updates:

  • Added a "Deprecation Date" column and updated EOL dates for Chef Automate, Chef Habitat, Chef InSpec, and Chef Workstation.
  • Clarified version ranges for several products.

Open source product table updates:

  • Added a "Deprecation Date" column and set explicit deprecation and EOL dates for Supermarket 5.x.
