This PR has improvements and clarifications around what we should do when osv-scanner reports a vulnerability. The original cause for this PR was that it was unclear if we were allowed to ignore entire packages, and how to write such a PackageOverrides entry. Then I also took the opportunity to improve the beginning of the document, taking a broader view of how to handle vulnerability reports overall.

I also slightly changed the order of some paragraphs to make them come in a bit more of a priority order. Priority in the sense that expiry date and reason are the most important fields to specify correctly. The exact format of id is not as important to get right.
