mid2/offlineKeyV2 support was backported to Vaadin 14.14, 23.6, and 24.9, so it is no longer exclusive to 24.10+/License Checker 3. Update the machine ID compatibility table and offline key retrieval guidance accordingly. The download-offline-license Maven goal remains 24.10+ only.
Explain that the 'Detected an offline license version 1, but version 2 is required' message can also mean the version 1 machine ID could not be computed -- commonly because the JNA native library is blocked or fails to load -- and point users to mvn -X to find the real error. Also update the Invalid Offline Key entry so the version mismatch guidance matches the License Checker 2.3.1 backport (mid2/offlineKeyV2 in 14.14, 23.6, 24.9 and later; download-offline-license goal still 24.10+).
- Add 'backported' to the docs vocabulary (Vale.Spelling). - Add JNA and OSHI to the Vaadin.Abbr exceptions. - Wrap version-specific offline-key guidance in Vaadin.Versions = NO/YES, matching the pattern already used elsewhere in the docs.
