Fix #51: replace placeholder security handles with concrete owners

[Phantomcall]

Fix #51 — Replace placeholder security handles with concrete owners

Why it matters

Real handle = real triage; placeholder = silent failures. The previous
SECURITY.md and CODEOWNERS used a placeholder email (security@mindmint.example)
and a placeholder owner (@Riddlrealm). Reports sent to these addresses are
never received, so vulnerabilities are discovered late or never.

Changes

SECURITY.md

• Replaced the placeholder inbox security@mindmint.example with the concrete
  security@mindmint.io address.
• Added an explicit encouragement to use a dedicated security@ address so
  reports always reach the right team (placeholder/non-routed addresses cause
  silent failures).
• Added a Response Timeline section that links to the existing
  docs/SECURITY_RESPONSE_TIMELINE.md (SEV1–SEV3 acknowledge/triage/mitigation
  /post-mortem targets), satisfying the requirement to link that doc.

CODEOWNERS

• Replaced the @Riddlrealm placeholder with the real maintainer handle
  @Phantomcall across all owned paths.
• Added mandated ownership lines for /SECURITY.md and /CODEOWNERS so the
  security policy and ownership file are themselves owned by the maintainer
  team, matching the "mandate teams" acceptance criterion.
• Removed the stale "replace the placeholder" note.

Acceptance criteria checklist

• SECURITY.md updated.
• docs/SECURITY_RESPONSE_TIMELINE.md linked from SECURITY.md.
• CODEOWNERS reflects mandate teams (real handle, security files owned).
• Concrete handle and encouraged security@ email address.

I dug into the failing CI / build and clippy checks, and the cause is not in either PR's code — it's a pre-existing, repo-wide dependency break.

Root cause
Both jobs run cargo check --workspace --all-targets / cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets, which compile the test harness. The test-only dependency soroban-env-host 21.2.1 (pulled by soroban-sdk 21.7.7) depends on ed25519-dalek 3.0.0, whose rand_core API no longer satisfies the harness:

error[E0277]: the trait bound ChaCha20Rng: ed25519_dalek::rand_core::CryptoRng is not satisfied
--> soroban-env-host-21.2.1/src/builtin_contracts/testutils.rs:26
error: could not compile soroban-env-host (lib) due to 1 previous error

This breaks every --all-targets build in the workspace — including the docs-only #51 PR (PR #1, which only edits SECURITY.md/CODEOWNERS). So the red checks are environmental, not introduced by the PR content. Downgrading soroban-sdk only trades this for a different break (ethnum fails to compile under rustc 1.97), confirming the toolchain/registry state is fundamentally incompatible right now.

What I verified about the actual code:

• All 8 member crates I changed compile cleanly (cargo build → Finished).
• cargo clippy --lib -D clippy::correctness on those crates returns rc=0 (no correctness lints; only pre-existing warnings).
• I reverted all local dependency experiments; the branches fix/issue-51-security-handles (PR build(deps): bump actions/checkout from 4 to 7 #1) and fix/issue-41-datakey-enums (PR build(deps): bump actions/upload-artifact from 4 to 7 #2) are intact.

How to actually make the checks green:
This needs a repo-level change, outside issue #41/#51's scope and risky to apply blindly:

• Pin soroban-env-host/ed25519-dalek to a compatible version (sdk 21.7.7 hard-requires env-host 21.2.1, so this likely means moving to a different soroban-sdk that ships a working test harness), or
• Pin the Rust toolchain in rust-toolchain.toml to a version where both ethnum and ed25519-dalek 3.0.0 compile.

What i want to try to do:
Pin Rust toolchain:
Set rust-toolchain.toml to an older stable (e.g. 1.81.x) compatible with soroban-sdk 21.x. Lowest code risk; one-file change, but affects the whole repo's toolchain.

[Phantomcall]

I've now fully diagnosed it, and confirmed the toolchain pin does not work:

• rustup 1.81.0 can't even load the workspace — three contracts (referral, lottery, social_tipping) use edition = "2024" (needs rustc ≥ 1.85).
• 1.93.0 loads fine but the env-host error is byte-for-byte identical, because dependency resolution is toolchain-independent (resolver v2).

Root cause (precise): soroban-env-host 21.2.1 (test-only, via soroban-sdk 21.7.7) depends on ed25519-dalek >=2.0.0 → resolved to 3.0.0, which itself requires rand_core = "0.10". But env-host's test harness calls SigningKey::generate(chacha) where chacha: ChaCha20Rng comes from rand 0.8.7 (rand_core 0.6.4). The two rand_core versions never unify, so ChaCha20Rng can't satisfy ed25519_dalek::rand_core::CryptoRng. This is a pre-existing break in the test dependency tree, not caused by the #41/#51 PRs (which build cleanly and are clippy-clean on --lib).

It can't be fixed by a toolchain pin or a simple version pin (the chain curve25519-dalek 5.0.0 → ed25519-dalek 3.0.0 and env-host's hard rand = 0.8.5 constraint). The only code-level fix is bumping soroban-sdk to a version with a corrected env-host — a large, risky, out-of-scope migration across ~100 contracts.
