[docs] Pkg list: current version, not latest release (#18213)
The package list at https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/package_list.html claims "it is automatically generated based on the packages in the latest Spack release" but it is actually based on the develop branch. This leads to confusion when users find that e.g. herwigpp is included in the list, but it cannot be found when they install the latest release. That latest release has a package list at https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/stable/package_list.html which does indeed not include herwigpp. Changing the language from "the latest Spack release" to "this Spack version" might make that clearer. Maybe.
