Core API compatibility.

This constant is set to '8.x' to provide legacy compatibility with extensions that use the '8.x-' prefix to denote Drupal core major version compatibility, for example '8.x-1.0'. These extensions can specify compatibility with multiple major versions of Drupal core by setting the version constraint in 'core_version_requirement'. Drupal does not support using this core major version number prefix with versions greater than 8. For example '9.x-' prefixed extensions are not supported.

@todo Remove or rename this constant in https://www.drupal.org/i/3085662
