Merge #16164: doc: update release process for SECURITY.md
d7c054277798cc1975041eb19c679cd07c412d68 doc: update release process with SECURITY.md (Jon Atack)
e4e2b28cf1c87699e5c86e75e066636ba2a9c146 doc: clarify support in SECURITY.md (Jon Atack)
Pull request description:
Follow-up to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16140:
- Update the release process to maintain SECURITY.md; this looks like the sort of item that can otherwise be easily overlooked during a major release
- Clarify type of support in SECURITY.md
Question: If https://bitcoincore.org/en/lifecycle/#maintenance-period is still current policy, should v0.15 now be unmaintained and v0.16 EOL... seems the schedule on that page could use an update.
