What

Add /.well-known/security.txt under static/ so helm.sh serves one.

Why

https://helm.sh/.well-known/security.txt currently returns 404. RFC 9116 makes /.well-known/security.txt the standard, machine-discoverable place a researcher looks first to find how to report a security issue. Helm already publishes a reporting channel (the cncf-helm-security@lists.cncf.io list, per the community SECURITY.md); this just makes it discoverable by the RFC convention. The file is served verbatim from static/ and carries a future Expires per §2.5.5. Signed off per DCO.

I used AI assistance to identify this and draft the file; I verified the live 404 and the reporting channel myself.

helm.sh serves no security.txt at the well-known location, so a researcher
following RFC 9116 has no machine-discoverable pointer to Helm's security
reporting channel (the CNCF Helm security list). Added under static/, pointing
Contact at that list and Policy at the community SECURITY.md.
