Secret scanning alerts now have a timeline and users can add a comment when resolving

GitHub Advanced Security customers can now view a timeline of actions taken on a secret scanning alert, including when a contributor bypassed the push protection on a secret. Users can also now add an optional comment when closing an alert via the UI or the API.
