Run a nightly CI with the results from `cargo-audit`
cargo-audit can report new CVEs in our dependency graph. We should run a nightly CI that reports any new CVEs (and we need to keep an ignore list).
This is not suitable for PRs because new CVEs can appear at random and we do not want to block development on them.
@coryan where do you think we should be notified of the results ? I was thinking about this while debugging the related issue and wasn't sure the best way to do that.
And I agree on not running on PRs and the ignore list. For example, but running cargo audit in the repo, we can see the issue with rsa that would block and an issue with the paste crate that is just a warning.

@amanda-tarafa is working on a notification to a dedicated chat room. See #3931

FWIW, paste is fixed as-of #3935.
