Qpid site and the security pages

I've been working with the security pages recently, and there are two
things I propose.

First, I'd like to simplify the way we include the full CVE content.
Instead of embedding it in the CVE table as a show/hide element, I'd like
to link out to an independent page.  I think this will make it a little
easier to author, avoid what will become a giant page, and give the CVE its
own URL.

Under this plan, the tables would remain as they are now, but the full CVE
would be hosted at a standard location.  The table would simply link to the
CVE page.

  input/cves/CVE-2016-9999.md
  output/cves/CVE-2016-9999.html

Second, a small thing.  I will add links from the component pages to their
contained security pages.  Right now you have to navigate from the
top-level security page.

Fine by me.
In this case, I think it is worth considering to change the code to use
markdown tables instead of embedded html.
I originally used embedded html because markdown tables are horrendous with
large tables but with the proposed change they should become quite simple
and small, I guess.

Kind Regards,

Sounds reasonable to me.
