Eventually this should reference SDK documentation the feature bands which isn't finalized yet.
- 1xx: Contains complete VMR - 2xx/3xx: Contains only tooling sources - runtime/core libraries excluded
- Change 'Latest' to 'current' in Build Requirements section for clarity - Remove redundant comment in 3xx servicing scenario - Addresses PR feedback about consistent terminology usage
