docs: expand Socket CLI comparison with concrete examples and structured sections #361

@sonukapoor

Description

@sonukapoor

The CVE Lite CLI vs Socket CLI section is thin. Expand it to match the Dependabot/npm audit depth.

Socket requires a paid account for full scans so direct comparison data is limited, but the structural differences are well-documented:

  • Socket goes beyond CVEs into supply-chain risk (malware, typosquatting, suspicious maintainers, license issues)
  • Different threat model: not just "is this version vulnerable" but "is this package trustworthy"
  • CVE Lite and Socket are largely complementary rather than competitive
  • Where each tool has the edge and recommended combined approach
