app version sets processor minimum dependency

[line-o]

Historically the version of the documentation app is somewhat connected to the exist-db version:
The app-version will end up as the minimum required exist-db version.
If I now want to release a 7.0.0 of documentation app it would require at minimum a 7.0.0 of exist-db to install.
But we only have version 7.0.0-SNAPSHOT and plan to release 7.0.0-beta both lower than 7.0.0 and therefore the documentation app cannot be installed.

There is now two ways to fix the situation

drop the hard connection between minum exist-db version and the app version (my preferred approach)
release a 7.0.0-SNAPSHOT of documentation app

Agreed, let's drop the hard connection and instead advertise the eXist version being documented via some other means...

At worst, each article already has a date/quarter/year stamp. So it's not impossible to work out what version was stable at the time of an article's last update.

I m in favor of keeping the coupling and just lowering the processor min version to Snapshot

[joewiz]

Both ideas are compatible: dropping the hard connection and keeping the coupling, by lowering the processor min version to the snapshot. There's still a coupling, but it's just looser.
