Walkthrough

This pull request introduces WhiteSource (Mend) security scanning integration to the repository. The configuration enables automated vulnerability detection for project dependencies through a new .whitesource configuration file. The setup configures check runs to fail when vulnerable dependencies are detected, displays differences in scan results, and reports issues for dependencies with a minimum severity level of LOW. Mend branding is enabled for check names, and the configuration uses default branch settings for scanning scope.
