Summary

Adds a SECURITY.md so the repository has a documented security policy.

The policy:

  • Directs vulnerability reports to GitHub's private vulnerability reporting rather than public issues, pull requests, the mailing list, or the wiki.
  • States that security fixes target the latest major version.
  • Commits to acknowledging reports within 15 days, keeps remediation severity-prioritised, and notes a best-effort 90-day coordinated-disclosure window.
  • Asks reporters to avoid public discussion, including revealing commit messages, until a fix is released.
  • Routes Semantic MediaWiki issues to its own vulnerability reporting, and MediaWiki core or other-extension issues to the Wikimedia security team.

Part of adding security policies across the Semantic MediaWiki extensions, cf. SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki#5512.
