docs: downgrade Connector Runtime Beta -> Experimental, sync features doc with #5328 (#5329)
The capability status table marked Connector Runtime as Beta, but only 4 of
23 plugins (file/kafka/pulsar/rocketmq) carry unit tests; the rest are
template implementations. Downgrade to Experimental and point at what has
actually landed: data-loss hardening + SPI split into eventmesh-connector-api
(#5328).
- README.md / README.zh-CN.md: status row updated
- docs/eventmesh-features.md §8: status paragraph + SPI module path fixed
(top-level eventmesh-connector-api/, not under connector-plugin)
