blog post for AppSec's annual HackerOne bounty review

Why is this change being made?

Each year GitLab's Application Security team likes to recap the highlights from GitLab's bug bounty program. Last year: https://about.gitlab.com/blog/2021/12/14/smashing-bugs-and-dropping-names-in-2021/

TODO

• Confirm numbers & update post
  • Total USD awards
  • Number of researchers in 2022
  • Number of researchers that submitted > 1 report
• Decide if we want to highlight reports that stood out (even though no prizes this year). If so:
  • (Objective) Most reputation points from submissions
  • (Objective) Most reputation points from submissions from a new reporter
  • (Subjective) Best written report
  • (Subjective) Most innovative report
  • (Subjective) Most impactful finding
  • Non-blocking: email recipients to set them up with some swag store credit, using their [username]@wearehackerone.com alias
    • Created https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-security/appsec/appsec-team/-/issues/338+ to coordinate emailing

IMPORTANT!! Contributors

Don't discuss the contents of any still-confidential reports. We can nominate the researcher, but we can't talk about confidential report contents, including here in the MR. Use a Internal Note comment if needed.
