Maintenance options

Each Offering and Entitlement (inherited from the offering) can contain a maintenance option.

This can control whether users can update the application to a new version. For example, a user can buy a perpetual entitlement for v1 with maintenance for a year, and if v2 is released within a year, the user is entitled to this upgrade because they have the maintenance option enabled.

This feature can also be used to identify if the entitlement owner has a support package.
