This adds a security.txt file, as specified by RFC 9116 and securitytxt.org. Technically, they want an expiry date that's less than one year away, but there's no need for us to update it that frequently so I picked 2030. I also opted to point Contact (required) to our policy rather than the email directly.

Although I doubt this will increase the quality of reports, maybe it will point more users to the policy where they'll see we have no bug bounty and won't waste our time with bogus reports... but that's unlikely. :-( However, it's still good practice to have this information recorded clearly.
