Description
### Current Behavior
We're aiming to build a mechanism to assemble and distribute a vulnerability database tailored to Dependency-Track's needs.
The goals for our own database are defined here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DVV4ik7NGOBc6u-fdPlPVKoplNmSpzDT6iC4FJAFYi0/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.w22q0gsagz1c
Dependency-Track's own database schema will need to be updated to make effective use of the data provided by this effort.
### Proposed Behavior
Update / refactor the schema to make effective use of the data provided by this effort. Keep in mind that existing data will need to be migrated.
> [!NOTE]
> Partly depends on #4528, in order to know what fields will be provided.
Relevant classes (i.e. tables) of the current schema are:
* [Vulnerability](https://github.com/DependencyTrack/dependency-track/blob/master/src/main/java/org/dependencytrack/model/Vulnerability.java)
* [VulnerabilityAlias](https://github.com/DependencyTrack/dependency-track/blob/master/src/main/java/org/dependencytrack/model/VulnerabilityAlias.java)
* [VulnerableSoftware](https://github.com/DependencyTrack/dependency-track/blob/master/src/main/java/org/dependencytrack/model/VulnerableSoftware.java)
TODO: Add Mermaid ER diagram.
