Suggest 3 time periods as discussed in #1153.
- 1 month MUST for any patch version - 2 weeks MUST for patch w/ CVE w/ CVSS >= 8. - 2 days RECOMMENDED for patch w/ CVE w/ CVSS >= 8. I moved the recommendation from behind the "critical CVE" definition next to the requirement, so it becomes a tad easier to parse. Signed-off-by: Kurt Garloff <kurt@garloff.de>
