docs(index): add cross-spec alignment matrix (T-08)#690
Conversation
Add an explicit "Alignment with other AAS Specifications" table that names the companion API (IDTA-01002 v3.2) and Security (IDTA-01004 v3.1) versions that are designed to be used with this Metamodel version, together with a short note on what each companion spec contributes. Also clarifies the substitution rule for bugfix (patch) releases and asks implementations to declare which companion versions they implement. Refs: Review Finding T-08 Made-with: Cursor

In the past we explicitly did not do an alignment with the release in case a part does not have an update. So for example, if only the API is extended and gets a new version but the metamodel remains the same with this newly proposed section an unnecessary dependency is introduced. |

This chapter has the same intention as the newly introduced chapter "Alignment with other AAS specifications". The new proposal add more information on what to expect in which version. On of both must be removed.

Summary
Add an explicit "Alignment with other AAS Specifications" table to the Metamodel's index page. The table names the companion IDTA-01002 (API, v3.2) and IDTA-01004 (Security, v3.1) versions this Metamodel version is designed to be used with, and clarifies the substitution rule for bugfix (patch) releases.
Problem
IDTA-01001 currently only lists dependencies to IDTA-01003-a/b (data specifications). It does not state which versions of the API (IDTA-01002) and Security (IDTA-01004) specifications this Metamodel version is aligned with. Reviewers and implementers have to infer version compatibility from the other two specs, which is error-prone.
