Background
The Aerie DB migration script supports running down (ie. backward) migrations, for downgrading the database to older versions of Aerie - this is mostly used for troubleshooting, or if a customer encounters a blocker issue on a later version and wants to use an earlier version.
This process is somewhat documented in the docs here: https://nasa-ammos.github.io/aerie-docs/deployment/advanced-database-migrations/
Description
The docs for downgrading Aerie version could use improvement to make it clear what to do. It's a bit non-intuitive to run, and requires knowing which down migrations need to be run in advance. It would be great if the script could determine which migrations need to be run (maybe given a version number) - but failing that, the process for determining which ones to run should at least be documented
