interesting, v25.1 docs still refer to a "v24.1.x" format? this has had technical review so must be correct, but as a general reader this stood out to me

I tried out the liquid variable for page version with this format, and it works — so I've updated this first callout in each version's page with this so that it will automatically update. I haven't updated the table with this as it'll be hard to control as we progress in versions and the restore pattern is specific.

Fixes DOC-11980
This PR updates the Restoring Backups Across Versions page to account for innovation releases.
Innovation releases were introduced in v24.2, so the changes have been added to v24.1+ since the policy is that users can restore to the same major version, or one above — v24.1 clusters can upgrade to v24.3 (skipping the first v24.2 innovation release).
