config: add option to set security component on helper.

Luis Guzmán requested to merge Ark74/package-helpers:add_security_component_config_11 into aramo

At the time of sending this MR, there are 3 packages that add a fix for opened CVE upstream,

  • guix
  • pidgin
  • dino-im

Still using a helper will send this updates through the "$CODENAME-updates" channel, instead of "$CODENAME-security" one, this MR fixes such issue.

The reasoning behind this that if upstream sends the patch, then the helper will fail at that point we can remove both the SECURITY=true variable and clean the previous CVE patches from the helper and DATA, and mimic the upstream behaviour.
