Summary

Microsoft Graph Toolkit has been retired. This PR updates the README to reflect that:

  • Removes the first row of status badges (Stack Overflow, Build CI, Storybook, good-first-issue), which are no longer relevant.
  • Adds a retirement notice as a prominent [!IMPORTANT] callout stating the project was retired on August 28, 2026.
  • Thanks the community for their support and contributions over the years.
  • Reminds readers they can fork the repository if they wish to maintain their own version.

Notes

The npm package version table under "Packages" is intentionally left unchanged.

Announce that Microsoft Graph Toolkit was retired on August 28, 2026,
thank the community for their support, and let readers know they can
fork the repository to maintain their own version. Also remove the
now-defunct first row of status badges.

Insert the retirement announcement into every publishable package README
so the deprecation is visible on npm when the final version ships. Uses a
plain blockquote (not a GitHub alert) since npm does not render alert
callouts.
