Per the discussion at the previous GDExtension meeting, we think it's time to stop saying that GDExtension is experimental :-)
While I guess we technically still reserve the right to break compatibility if there is a bug or issue serious enough, based on our track record so far, I don't think we will need to.
This PR replaces the warning about being experimental, with some of the text copied from this docs page:
https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/tutorials/scripting/gdextension/what_is_gdextension.html#version-compatibility
I think we should ultimately just link to that docs page, so we don't have to update this information in two places, however, I don't want to link to it with godotengine/godot-docs#10631 still open, because that will lead to the URL changing.
Also, for this reason, I didn't integrating more of the suggestions from #1588 and instead decided to keep it minimal, because all of the notes we talked about there probably should be on the docs page rather than in the godot-cpp README
