Allow rolling upgrade of an online cluster to a different major version.

This would allow upgrading to a different major version as a rolling upgrade. This reduces risk by only upgrading some secondaries allowing failover to revert to the previous version with minimal impact. New catalog fields would be auto-populated ...
