doc: add duplicate CVE check in sec. release doc

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/danbev/security-release-docs-cve into master

This commit adds a note about only creating a CVE for Node.js vulnerabilities.

The motivation for this is a recent HackerOne report where I created a CVE for a c-ares issue. This CVE should have been created by the c-ares project, and it was later, but we never updated our HackerOne report to use their CVE number. Hopefully this extra note in the release doc will help us check for this situaion and avoid this in the future.
