This commit introduces an experimental CycloneDX VEX document that: * Provides an analysis of CVE-2025-48924 as it pertains to this library. * Is committed to the **Git repository only** (not published to the website), allowing it to be retrieved via `raw.githubusercontent.com`. This VEX file is intended to support consumers in evaluating the exploitability of known vulnerabilities in Apache Commons BCEL.

Hello @ppkarwasz
As we discussed on Slack, I think we can keep this experiment under src/conf/secutity like Commons Compress (https://github.com/apache/commons-compress/blob/master/src/conf/security/openvex.json).
I don't think we should invent a new top-level source directory that is a surprise for normal Maven users.
I don't see src/cyclonedx as needed by https://cyclonedx.github.io/cyclonedx-maven-plugin/

This update corrects the serial number in the VEX file, which was mistakenly copied from apache/commons-bcel#446. With this fix, all published VEX files will now have unique serial numbers, preventing potential conflicts or duplication.
