Documents the secret_scan package metadata field. Companion to the hex change that carries the key into the tarball and the hexpm scanner that reads it.

Companion PRs: hexpm/hexpm#1806, hexpm/hex#1221

The repository's secret scanning of published packages reads this to suppress
findings in paths a package deliberately ships secret-like values in.
