bandit-sarif-formatter's Issues

Consider adding CWE information to output

Bandit will soon ship version 1.7.3 which supports CWE information about a particular vulnerability found. All of the formatters that are part of the base Bandit code have been updated to include CWE info. It would be very useful for this SARIF formatter to do the same.

Section 3.7.2.1 General of https://docs.oasis-open.org/sarif/sarif/v2.0/csprd01/sarif-v2.0-csprd01.html specifically talks about how CWE information could be added in SARIF format.
