Docs say:

## Upgrading
External Secrets Operator has not reached stable 1.0 yet. This means that **we treat each minor version bump as a potentially breaking change**. Breaking changes may include:
- API schema changes
- Default behavior modifications
- Deprecated feature removals
- Provider authentication changes
- Configuration format updates
**Important upgrade recommendations:**
1. **Plan your upgrades carefully** - Always review release notes before upgrading, it could contain breaking changes information
2. **Upgrade version by version** - We strongly recommend upgrading one minor version at a time (e.g., 0.18.x → 0.19.x → 0.20.x) rather than skipping versions
3. **Test in non-production first** - Always validate upgrades in development/staging environments
Until we reach v1.0, please treat minor version upgrades with the same caution you would give to major version upgrades in other projects.

External Secrets Operator has not reached stable 1.0 yet

This is not true anymore, but most of the Upgrading section are still valid upgrade best practices. Could you please update it to reflect current state 🙏?
