doc: consider re-adding python-tuf attack protection demo
Description of issue or feature request: #1790 removes severely outdated ATTACKS.md, which demoed how python-tuf protects against the attacks TUF is designed for.
Such documentation, if up-to-date, still seems like a good source for better understanding the purpose and necessity of TUF and thus should be re-added.
Current behavior:
- no attack protection demo
Expected behavior:
- add attack protection demo for ngclient (potential source of inspiration: https://github.com/theupdateframework/python-tuf/issues/1640)
Adding suggestion from duplicate closed #360:
This metadata [required to demonstrate the attacks] can be fed to other implementations to verify that they correctly handle these attacks
