docs: expand OSV-Scanner comparison with concrete examples and structured sections #359

Description

@sonukapoor

The CVE Lite CLI vs OSV-Scanner section is thin. Expand it to match the Dependabot/npm audit depth with structured sections grounded in real scan data from the NestJS example repo.

Key points to cover:

  • Both tools use OSV as the data source — why results still differ
  • OSV-Scanner lists every individual CVE as a row (66 CVEs across 35 packages on NestJS); CVE Lite groups by package with fix commands
  • No fix commands in OSV-Scanner output
  • No direct vs transitive distinction or parent upgrade guidance
  • Multi-ecosystem breadth vs JS/TS focus
  • Where each tool has the edge and recommended combined approach
