Update Security Policy (#196)

Created SECURITY.md file because GitHub automatically uses it.

The text is mostly copied from "Security Policy" section of README.md with an exception added for vulnerabilities already known to the public (to encourage easier or anonymous reporting).

Update "Security Policy" section.  Link to SECURITY.md instead of providing details in the README.
