Conflicting statements regarding which MSBuild/VS versions are supported by 8.0 SDKs

Describe the issue or suggestion

From what I could find there are at least three places that state the minimum MSBuild/VS versions supported by each feature band of the .NET SDK.

All of these places disagree on what is compatible and what isn't. Below are the compatible MSBuild/VS version according to each.

SDK Version Documentation page Download page (as of release 8.0.8) Breaking changes
8.0.1xx 17.7 17.8 17.7
8.0.2xx 17.8 N/A 17.8
8.0.3xx 17.8 17.10 17.8
8.0.4xx 17.8 17.11 17.9

After "falling in the trap" of believing the documentation page and getting a really poor error message from VS 17.8 with SDK 8.0.400, I believe that the information on the breaking changes page is the one that is correct. but I don't really know.

These version support tables should be unified to contain the correct information in all places.
