There's a version right on the front page, it says "Version ASCIIDOC 
Conversion, 12/2022".  There's a few with that version, but versioning 
is pretty broken in RISC-V land so we've mostly just started running 
with the commits/tags.

It also says it's a pre release version, but if that's what ACPI is 
using then I'm fine with it -- the key is that whatever we're supporting 
we're stuck with, as we have to maintain compatibility here.

The nice thing about starting with a new interface is that there's 
nothing to be compatible with, so there's no issues.  Given what a mess 
ISA strings have been everywhere else I'm sure we'll have some, but 
that's problem for later.

I couldn't find anywhere else this was written down, so I started an 
ACPI doc -- as usual maybe a bit odd for just the one thing, but we 
usually end up with more.
