[j-nsp] How to pick JUNOS Version

[Tom Beecher]

Start with the highest code version supported on the hardware that has all
the features you need.
Subtract 2 from the major revision number.
Pick a .3 version of that major revision.
Work towards current from there depending on test results, security needs,
etc.
