docs: add security policy
Metadata
Current evaluation
Merged PR #837 (commit 0f44e504) added a real SECURITY.md for rockcraft, replacing the GitHub template (#356/#365) with a policy covering rock authorship, build isolation, supported bases and vulnerability reporting via private security reports.
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: The PR was approved by two reviewers and merged as commit 0f44e504, which introduced the substantive SECURITY.md (60 lines) still present at HEAD. Follow-up comment from tigarmo notes reviewer suggestions were applied.

Issue body
For now it is very close to Snapcraft's, even though Rockcraft itself only has a single major release (1.x). As this documents the current policy, it does not make any references to interim bases - we'll need to update this document when we "oficially" support those.
