Description

The page is here: https://beam.apache.org/documentation/runners/mapreduce/

It does not call out that it is on a feature branch, and it even demonstrates setting up a maven dependency for it, implying that it has releases, which it does not.

Similarly, the capability matrix should (until we have a larger revamp) make very clear which runners are not actually available to users in the form of released artifacts.

Imported from Jira [BEAM-3814](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-3814). Original Jira may contain additional context.

Research direction

Start with the MapReduce runner page at https://beam.apache.org/documentation/runners/mapreduce/ and identify the Maven dependency example and feature-branch status. Then locate the capability matrix, update both areas to distinguish unreleased artifacts from available releases, and verify that the documentation consistently reflects the runner's availability.
