Move Code Quality to Static Analysis

Taylor McCaslin requested to merge code-quality-move into master

Why is this change being made?

As per https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/Product/-/issues/2426, we are moving Code Quality to Secure in the Static analysis group. This updates stages.yml and categories.yml as well as relocates the direction page.

This puts GitLab in alignment with the industry's trend of SAST expanding to include Code Quality. This change also optimizing our delivery of these categories as Code Quality leverages some SAST security scanners today and will more as it matures.
