Version naming for OpenStack Charms releases has changed from being time-based (YY.MM) to one that is based on the newly-supported OpenStack release.

Individual charms will also no longer be developed to work with every supported
OpenStack release. Instead, each charm will leverage Charmhub tracks, each of
which will determine a supported scenario.
