Walkthrough

This PR introduces security scanning capabilities to the repository by adding WhiteSource (now Mend) configuration. The setup enables automated vulnerability detection for project dependencies with comprehensive security checks. The configuration is designed to fail builds when vulnerable dependencies are detected, ensuring security issues are caught early in the development process. Issue reporting is configured to track all dependency vulnerabilities with a minimum severity threshold of LOW, providing broad coverage of potential security risks. The implementation uses Mend branding for check names and applies scanning to default branch settings.

Changes

File(s)	Summary
.whitesource	Added WhiteSource/Mend configuration file for automated security scanning with check runs configured to fail on vulnerable dependencies, issue reporting enabled for all vulnerabilities with minimum severity level of LOW, Mend branding enabled, and diff display mode activated.
