In our developer documentation we currently have a very vague description on 
how to select the Jenkins baseline: 
https://www.jenkins.io/doc/developer/plugin-development/choosing-jenkins-baseline/

Recently a lot of my builds failed (my baseline was 2.204.4) because some 
frequently used base plugins updated their minimum Jenkins version to a higher 
LTS minor version (like 2.222.1) or a higher patch version (2.204.6). 

So I thought it would make sense to make the baseline selection more concrete:
https://github.com/jenkins-infra/jenkins.io/pull/3630

Note that it still might sense to use newer versions when a plugin requires 
some modern core features. So this section should provide a suggestion only for 
those plugins that actually have no strict Jenkins core dependency.

What do you think? Does it make sense?
