Browse Source 
Add brief documentation of NVDCVE_API_KEY variable, that was added
in 4.2.3, and emphasize that its use results in lower NVD API request
times.

:term:`NVDCVE_API_KEY`
The NVD API key used to retrieve data from the CVE database when
using :ref:`ref-classes-cve-check`.
By default, no API key is used, which results in larger delays between API
requests and limits the number of queries to the public rate limits posted
at the `NVD developer's page <https://nvd.nist.gov/developers/start-here>`__.
NVD API keys can be requested through the
`Request an API Key <https://nvd.nist.gov/developers/request-an-api-key>`__
page. You can set this variable to the NVD API key in your ``local.conf`` file.
Example::
NVDCVE_API_KEY = "fe753&7a2-1427-347d-23ff-b2e2b7ca5f3"
:term:`OBJCOPY`
The minimal command and arguments to run ``objcopy``.
