feat(add): Stabilize MSRV-aware version req selection

This is part of #9930 for rust-lang/rfcs#3537

This will make it easier to maintain an MSRV-compliant `Cargo.toml` but
leaves validation up to the user as the resolver will pick newer
versions.
This helps the MSRV-aware workflows enumerated in
rust-lang/rfcs#3537 though it could be confusing to the workflow with an
MSRV-compatible lockfile.
PR #13561 at least raises awareness of that discrepancy.

There is an unresolved question on differences in the resolver vs
`cargo add` for dealing with an unset `rust-version`.
However, we are only stabilizing the `cargo add` side which is a very
light two-way door as this is a UX-focused command and not a
programmatic command.

This hasn't gotten much end-user testing but, as its UX focused, that
seems fine.

As such, this seems like it is ready to stabilize.
