Documentation error on versioning explanations.

    Description

      I believe there is a mistake in the following documentation page:

      https://docs.percona.com/percona-server/8.0/server-version-numbers.html

      When it says:

      The version numbers for Percona Server for MySQL 8.0.29-21 define the following information:

      • Base version - the leftmost numbers indicate MySQL 8.0 version used as a base. An increase in base version resets the minor build version to 0.
      • Minor build version - an internal number that increases by one every time Percona Server for MySQL is released.

       

      In particular: "An increase in base version resets the minor build version to 0."

      This is not correct, since that is monotonically increasing, as explained in the second point.
