Jeremy Stanley b3da2bd39c Add a security warning about downstream reuse
Consumers have chronically looked to our list of tested dependency
versions for guidance on what to install, without realizing their
use case is different from ours or considering the security
implications of that choice.

Include a prominent security warning in the README.rst,
global-requirements.txt and generated upper-constraints.txt files
in hopes of making these risks clearer.

Security Warning

OpenStack makes no security guarantees about third-party dependencies listed here, and does not keep track of any vulnerabilities they contain. Versions of these dependencies are frozen at each coordinated release in order to stabilize upstream testing, and can contain known vulnerabilities. Consumers are STRONGLY encouraged to rely on curated distributions of OpenStack or manage security patching of dependencies themselves.
