DATACMNS-687 - Added section on dependency management to reference docs.

Added a dedicated dependencies.adoc that outlines the usage of the Spring Data release train BOM as well as the way one would customize the release train to be used with Spring Boot.

Also, we now explicitly list the Spring Framework version the release requires.

Due to different inception dates of individual Spring Data modules, most of them carry different major and minor version numbers. The easiest way to find compatible ones is by relying on the Spring Data Release Train BOM we ship with the compatible versions defined. In a Maven project you'd declare this dependency in the `<dependencyManagement />` section of your POM:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>

<version>${release-train}</version>
<scope>import</scope>
<type>pom</type>
</dependency>
<dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

====
The current release train version is {releasetrainVersion}. The train names are ascending alphabetically and currently available ones are listed https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-commons/wiki/Release-planning[here]. The version name follows the following pattern: `${name}-${release}` where release can be one of the following:
* `BUILD-SNAPSHOT` - current snapshots
* `M1`, `M2` etc. - milestones
* `RC1`, `RC2` etc. - release candidates
* `RELEASE` - GA release
* `SR1`, `SR2` etc. - service releases
A working example of using the BOMs can be found in our https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-examples/tree/master/bom[Spring Data examples repository].
If that's in place declare the Spring Data modules you'd like to use without a version in the `<dependencies />` block.

[[dependencies.spring-boot]]
== Dependency management with Spring Boot
Spring Boot already selects a very recent version of Spring Data modules for you. In case you want to upgrade to a newer version nonetheless, simply configure the property `spring-data-releasetrain.version` to the train name and iteration you'd like to use.
[[dependencies.spring-framework]]
== Spring Framework
The current version of Spring Data modules require Spring Framework in version {springVersion} or better. The modules might also work with an older bugfix version of that minor version. However, using the most recent version within that generation is highly recommended.
