Clarify roles and responsibilities of vulnerability handling
Why is this change being made?
In the FedRAMP RAR retrospective, it was brought up that we had trouble finding DRIs and the roles & responsibilities were not clear across functional groups.
This MR attempts to add clarity to roles & responsibilities for the tasks we ran into confusions during RAR, based on the review and discussion by Development groups in gitlab-org/enablement-section/discussions#44.
