The Google Charts API for the charts and data will not be changing just because we are changing how the library is loaded. Going forward, it would be better to use the gstatic loader if you can, and for most people, there is no reason not to. There are a couple deficiencies we are still working on, regarding dynamic loading.
I'm not sure about the timeline for transitioning the documentation, but I would expect it will be done within a month. See the release notes about versions: https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/release_notes If you are concerned about stability and happy with a particular version, then you may want to use that frozen version, but the disadvantage, of course, is that you will not see updates that could improve your chart.
