Adds the missing ecosystem and package mapping for this unreviewed advisory.

The advisory title already identifies the affected package as the npm package
jsii-diff, but no ecosystem or package name was assigned, so npm projects
depending on jsii-diff do not receive Dependabot alerts.

The AWS security bulletin and the linked jsii release (both already present in
this advisory's references) confirm the fix landed in v1.131.0. jsii-diff is
published on npm by AWS from the aws/jsii repository.

No changes were made to the description, references, severity, CVSS, or CWE.

Two notes on the severity block in this PR, both caused by the advisory edit
form rather than intentional changes:

  1. CVSS v4 vector normalization
    The original v4 vector string could not be parsed by the edit form, which
    blocked submission. It was normalized by removing the trailing "Not Defined"
    (:X) threat, environmental, and supplemental placeholders. All eleven base
    metrics are unchanged (AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N)
    and the score remains 8.4 / High.

  2. Unintended removal of the CVSS v3.1 entry
    The form only allows selecting a single CVSS version, so saving the v4 vector
    dropped the existing CVSS_V3 entry:
    "score": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"
    This removal was not intended. Please let me know if you would like it
    restored and I will push a commit adding it back, or feel free to restore it
    during curation.

The substantive change in this PR is the missing npm ecosystem and package
mapping for jsii-diff, plus the source code location.
