doc: remove How Does LTS Work section from Collaborator Guide
The How Does LTS Work section duplicates material in the release plan, to which there is already a link in the doc. Unfortunately, it has gone out of sync with the release plan, resulting in incorrect material being in the Collaborator Guide. (The Release WG needs to approve certain changes, not LTS WG as the guide currently says. It used to be the LTS WG, but that changed.) Instead of duplicating material in the Collaborator Guide and risking that the two documents contradict each other again, instruct the reader to refer to the release plan as the canonical source of information.
