Pull request overview
This PR adds a machine-readable releases.json file to the repository root, providing lifecycle data for all stable Windows App SDK releases.

Changes:
- Added releases.json containing release lifecycle metadata for versions 0.5 through 1.8
- Each entry includes version information, release/patch dates, support level, and EOL date
- Data sourced from the official release lifecycle documentation
