 Hi All,

 The new `Form.get_context()` method was added in #31026 on Sept 20th, but
 this breaks any form that already has a different `get_context()` method,
 for example:

 https://github.com/ubernostrum/django-contact-
 
form/blob/a30a3de7e80936e47ec939e5275ef00f03342688/src/contact_form/forms.py#L94

 I'd suggest at least making sure this is documented in the release notes.
 But also, is there an upgrade-path for 3rd party libraries like `django-
 contact-form` that need to support multiple django versions?

 Thanks,
 Collin
