Conflicts of interest and Cochrane Reviews

New text explaining the relationship between the 2014 and 2020 conflict of interest policies:

Cochrane has two conflict of interest policies relating to Cochrane Library content. Which policy applies to a particular review or update depends on whether the title of the review was registered (or whether work began on the update in the case of an update) before or after 14 October 2014.
