[beta] roadmap to next version (probably 23.10.0)

[huafu]

Why 23.10.0 and not 24.0.0?

• 23: we tend to follow major version of jest. If jest 24 is out before this one, it'll become 24.0.0
• .10: we need to keep some free minor numbers in between, in case we need a major fix or change.

Can I test?

Sure, just use the next npm dist-tag: npm i -D ts-jest@next.

Please report bugs or find help in our new slack community until the final release is out.

Can I help?

Yep, the sources are in beta branch, be sure to base your PRs over it!

We need help especially to:

• add more e2e test cases
• increase the coverage of unit tests
• add documentation

• close all issues linked to this one (they are fixed with beta)
• check all other open issues (being bugs) and close them after adding this comment:

  Upgrade `jest` and `ts-jest` to latest version. If this does not fix your issue, or if you have any difficulties upgrading, feel free to ask for help on [`ts-jest` Slack community](http://bit.ly/ts-jest-slack).
