Description

Add backwards compatibility tests for the plugin to automate end-to-end upgrade paths for faster releases.
Developer documentation for implementing bwc tests and hooking them to CI: https://github.com/opensearch-project/opensearch-plugins/blob/main/TESTING.md#backwards-compatibility-testing

This would include the BWC tests on both plugin level and distribution bundle level.

Start with the backwards-compatibility testing guidance in TESTING.md, then determine the plugin-level and distribution-bundle-level upgrade paths described in the issue. Done means end-to-end BWC tests cover both levels and are hooked into CI for automated release validation.
