Description

Apologies if this has been discussed before but searching npm/documentation and npm/cli didn't turn up anything.

The website and the CLI docs don't seem to mention end-of-life dates for npm's release lines. Would it be possible to add those?

Research direction

Start by locating the website and CLI documentation sections covering npm release lines. Determine where end-of-life dates belong, then document the dates for the relevant release lines and verify that both documentation areas mention them.
