Review Comment:
   According to agreed process of provider's removal process - we should make 
one LAST release of the provider whch includes information that the provider is 
not maintained any more: 
https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/PROVIDERS.rst#removing-community-providers
   
   > One last release of the provider is done with documentation updated 
informing that the provider is no longer maintained by the Apache Airflow 
community - linking to this page. This information should also find its way to 
the package documentation and consequently - to the description of the package 
in PyPI.
   
   Both in documentation and in README that goes to PyPI. This is why we want 
to be able to build and release package and documentation for the suspended 
provider. 
   
   I also considered un-suspending provider, releasing and THEN removing, but 
that would be rather cumbersome and involves for example rebuilding the CI 
image with all the provider dependencies. I decided that allowing to build 
docs, publish them and release suspended provider is way more reasonable 
approach.
