Summary
Replaces the public-issue disclosure instruction in
SECURITY.mdwith GitHub's private vulnerability reporting.Fixes #170

Now it directs them to Security → Report a vulnerability (a private GitHub Security Advisory) and explicitly forbids public issues, with a maintainer note to enable Private vulnerability reporting under Settings → Code security.Validation
