Adjusting the order of Security release prep steps

Amy Phillips requested to merge ap/security-release-prep into master

What does this MR do and why?

Re-orders some of the steps to prepare the security release. The order works around the problem of fixes sometimes being unexpectedly picked up when we merge backports. Related to gitlab-com/gl-infra/delivery#2619 (closed)

Changes:

  • Moves the PDM execution to happen after we confirm all changes are deployed on Production to make sure we don't miss any late-arriving migrations
  • Moves the unlinking excluded issues to earlier in the process to unlink them before we try to merge backports

  • Has documentation been updated?
