Add Migration Guide Links to JSS Documentation
Create or update a `MIGRATION.md` at the repo root that maps every JSS package to its Content SDK equivalent (using the cross-repo table from this report), documents the key breaking changes (Experience Editor removal, `field.editable` -> `field.metadata`, env var renames, `SitecoreContext` -> `SitecoreProvider`), and links to official Sitecore migration docs. Also add a migration section to the JSS documentation site if one exists.
Why
Community partners (Fishtank, AgencyQ) are publishing third-party migration guides, indicating demand. First-party migration documentation from the JSS repo itself is missing. Teams searching GitHub for migration info should find it in the repo they are migrating from.
Evidence
Sitecore research report (community migration guides); AgencyQ and Fishtank blog posts; Content SDK migration documentation
Details
Context: Sitecore's official migration documentation exists at `doc.sitecore.com` but the JSS repository itself — the place developers start when they realize they need to migrate — contains no migration guidance. Community partners (Fishtank: "Farewell to JSS, Welcome to Sitecore Content SDK"; AgencyQ: "The Business Case for Content SDK Migration") have published third-party guides, confirming market demand. First-party migration guidance in the JSS repo closes this gap and establishes Sitecore's voice in the migration narrative.

Steps:
1. Create `MIGRATION.md` at the repo root
2. Include: deprecation timeline (EOL June 2026), package mapping table (JSS -> Content SDK equivalents), key breaking changes summary, environment variable rename table, link to official Sitecore migration guide
3. Add a "Migrating to Content SDK" section to `README.md` linking to `MIGRATION.md`
4. For each JSS package `README.md` that has a Content SDK equivalent, add a migration pointer at the top
5. Submit as a PR with clear commit message referencing the JSS EOL

Acceptance criteria:
`MIGRATION.md` exists at repo root with complete package mapping
`README.md` links to migration guide prominently
Each migratable package README has a migration pointer
Links to official Sitecore documentation are included

Risks: Migration documentation needs to stay synchronized with Content SDK changes. Pin to specific Content SDK versions in the documentation to avoid future drift.
