Add an end-of-support policy to the public documentation.

This topic overlaps a lot with other support questions/issues, so I've repurposed supported-platforms.md as support.md and unified the discussion/linking that takes place between README.md, issues.md, support.md, and SECURITY.md.

@ckerr ckerr requested review from zeke, codebytere and a team April 30, 2018 23:29
(and do not work).

Both `ia32` (`x86`) and `x64` (`amd64`) binaries are provided for Windows.
Please note, the `ARM` version of Windows is not supported for now.

We should probably point out that Windows for ARM comes with an ia32 emulator that works just fine, so Electron apps still run (just like Chrome, for instance). I want to avoid that people think that Electron has quirks that keep it from running on Windows for ARM devices.

Should this not be the #electron channel on the Atom Slack?

This error was already in README.md; all I did was propagate it in a new file 💯
