Document Lightning Project's relationship to drupal/core #104

Closed phenaproxima closed 5 years ago

This is a constant source of confusion; people end up adding drupal/core as a direct dependency to their project (usually in an effort to update core to a new minor) and wonder why Composer conflicts. We could explain this better.

I think this is a great addition, however, instead of just listing out info in text format, could we mirror what BLT does and provide a reference table? see https://github.com/acquia/blt/blob/10.x/docs/README.md

I think that's a good idea, but I don't know how much standardization we have on a lot of those columns. That being said, I can start with a compatibility table...

yeah by no means do i mean you have to copy the entire table. just provided it all for reference
