[docs] Add security boundaries reference in SECURITY.md (#17848)

## Summary
1. Add a Security Boundaries section to `SECURITY.md`.
2. Point readers to the Codex Agent approvals and security documentation
for sandboxing, approvals, and network controls.

## Validation
1. Reviewed the `SECURITY.md` diff in a clean worktree.
2. No tests run. Docs only change.
