Feng Ruohang fd2ca1c6d2 docs: rebrand the repository documentation, templates and dashboards
README, README_ZH, SECURITY, COMPLIANCE, CONTRIBUTING, NOTICE,
code_of_conduct, the vulnerability and PR-etiquette documents, the GitHub issue
and pull request templates, and the docs/ tree all present Silo as the product.
The Grafana dashboards under docs/metrics/prometheus/grafana/ have their panel
titles and descriptions rebranded while every minio_* query, label and
expression is left alone, so existing alerts and recording rules keep matching.

The distinction the review demanded is applied per hit rather than by
search-and-replace:

- Product and command text becomes Silo and silo: install and run instructions,
  systemd examples, compose services, download links, badges.
- Protocol and interface text keeps MinIO: MINIO_* variables, minio_* metrics,
  x-minio-* headers, /minio/* routes, .minio.sys, arn:minio, and API field and
  error names.
- Attribution keeps MinIO and gains the fork's own: the AGPL obligations,
  original copyright, CREDITS and NOTICE stay, with the modification notice
  added alongside rather than replacing them.
- Historical and third-party references are left as facts, not rewritten for
  brand tidiness.

README and README_ZH each carry an explicit non-affiliation notice, document
the side-by-side package migration including the
/etc/systemd/system/silo.service.d/10-legacy-user.conf drop-in for keeping a
legacy UID/GID, and state that recursive chown is never performed. The trademark
attribution uses the policy's approved "based on MinIO technology" wording, not
the shortened form the policy rejects.

github.com/pgsty/minio links are left in place and labelled transitional. The
repository has not been renamed, and rewriting them now would produce documented
URLs that 404 until the cutover; they change in the cutover commit together with
the goreleaser release target, the OCI source label and the raw-content branch.

Vulnerability Management Policy

This document describes how the Silo maintainers investigate, assess, and remediate reported vulnerabilities affecting this fork, any directly shipped component, or a direct / indirect dependency used by this repository.

Scope

This policy covers vulnerability reports opened by repository maintainers or external third parties against Silo itself, its release artifacts, or dependencies that materially affect this fork.

It defines the information needed for triage and the expected remediation workflow for supported fixes.

Vulnerability Management Process

A useful vulnerability report should contain the following information:

  • The project / component that contains the reported vulnerability.
  • A description of the vulnerability. In particular, the type of the reported vulnerability and how it might be exploited. Alternatively, a well-established vulnerability identifier, such as a CVE or GHSA ID, can be used instead.

Based on the report, the Silo maintainers investigate:

  • Whether the reported vulnerability exists.
  • The conditions that are required such that the vulnerability can be exploited.
  • Which releases, branches, or deployment paths are affected.
  • The steps required to fix the vulnerability.

If the vulnerability exists in this fork itself, the maintainers will, when feasible, fix the issue or implement reasonable countermeasures such that the vulnerability can no longer be exploited. Fork-specific upgrade notes and security advisories are published in docs/security/advisories.md.
