Security updates go straight to Stable already.

At the moment it's not enforcing anything, as anyone can mark their
updates as stable whenever they want.  To implement this guideline, I
could have bodhi automatically submit updates to the stable repo after
the n days are up.  Whether or not we want to take away our ability to 
mark our own updates as stable and force approval or timeout on test updates
is still up for discussion.
