Upgrade recommendations

When updating the device, it is recommended to do an intermediate upgrade
using an available AXIS OS LTS-release on the way to the desired AXIS OS
version.
For example, if the device currently is running AXIS OS 7.40 and you want to
upgrade to the latest AXIS OS Active Track (Example: 10.1, October 2020) then
you should do the upgrade in these steps: 7.40 => 8.40 LTS => 9.80 LTS => 10.1.
