Is there a policy for Rustc's edition or minimum supported version? #1382

Looking around our repos, there are lots of long-living repos some of which are written in 2015 edition style. I think we can improve them by adapting to the newer edition. Is there an edition or MSRV policy we must conform to?

Rule of thumb is to not break stuff that is working. However, there is no explicit policy against upgrading repos.

To be sure, we have to treat upgrading the edition as breaking change. I'm fine with this, as long we don't break existing code.
