* Add `SECURITY.md` file The other day, Rodrigo and me noticed that WPCS does not have a published security policy (via a `SECURITY.md` file). This commit intends to add such a file, which should help inform security researchers how to disclose any findings they may have. The file is placed in the `.github` directory. This will allow for it to be recognized correctly by GitHub, while not cluttering up the project root directory.
