advisory-scan: NVD by CPE, so mattermost and mumble stop scanning as '?'

Two recipes could not see CVEs at all. mattermost-lts has an empty GitHub advisory
feed and renders its security bulletins client-side, so a text sweep finds nothing;
mumble publishes nothing anywhere the registry points. Both returned '?' - nothing
measured - which is honest but useless.

NVD is CPE-indexed and carries structured version ranges, so it answers where the
vendor does not. Declared per recipe as 'nvd-cpe: <image> = <cpe:2.3:...>'.

  mattermost-lts 10.5.0  -> 10.12.4   165 CVEs
  mattermost-lts 10.11.22 -> 10.12.4    0 CVEs  (measured, not unknown)
  mumble         1.3.0   -> 1.6.870      2 CVEs

Both NVD range forms are used: versionEndExcluding is a patched version;
versionEndIncluding means the fix version is unpublished but the upgrade delivers
it whenever it crosses X.

That 0 for the actual mattermost upgrade is the interesting one, and it needed a
new rule to be correct: a fix on the line you upgrade FROM was already yours.
mattermost patches every maintained line at once, so 10.11.22 -> 10.12.4 crosses
10.12.1 while 10.11.22 already had the 10.11.4 backport. Without the rule the scan
claimed 12 CVEs the upgrade did not deliver.

The rule is skipped for placeholders: '7.4.X' parses to a bare 7.4 and would read
as 'already fixed at 7.4', which silently dropped redis CVE-2024-46981 and took
discourse 140 -> 139 before I caught it.

79 tests. discourse 140 / gitea 2 / mailu 2 / keycloak 12 / plausible 6 unchanged.
Fleet sweep: 0 recipes with no usable CVE source, down from 2.
