Clarify support status. Use yellow for LTS and green for current version, since yellow is a warning and on LTS not every package is supported, while use green for current Debian having full support.

Debian Long Term Support
Debian Long Term Support (LTS) is a project to extend the lifetime of all Debian stable releases to (at least) 5 years. Debian LTS will not be handled by the Debian security team, but by a separate group of volunteers and companies interested in making it a success.
Thus the Debian LTS team takes over security maintenance of the various releases once the Debian Security team stops its work.
