Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 EOL was January 14, 2020.
Windows 8 EOL was January 12, 2016.
Windows 2012 (not R2) is still supported and allowed to run. This
clarifies that support is experimental.

Remove "All commits...are tested on these platforms." for the following
reasons:
* It's somewhat redundant. The surrounding text makes it clear that we
test on these platforms.
* It's imprecise. Commits, such as those that only affect documentation
or linting do not get tested on all the platforms. (Well, perhaps they
do in an after-the-fact kind of way when a subsequent commit gets
tested, but I think that's a stretch.)

The "maintenance is supported by" stuff in BUILDING.md is unclear. It
seems unnecessary so I propose removing it.
I don't understand what it means to, in this context, support
maintenance. Does it mean that you simply do the maintenance? Does that
mean it really just means "maintain"? Do we really mean that we mantain
support, rather than support maintenance?
That information does not seem necessary to include. I'm not sure it's
meaningful. With (for example) Windows, is it accurate to say that the
Node.js core team maintains support for it? Or is it accurate to say
that support is maintaned by smaller groups or individuals within the
Node.js core team? Both could be considered accurate. So is the
difference meaningful?
I think the more important elements of determinig tier support are the
other listed elements.
