For this operation, should <not-affected> clear only specific kinds for
the specified suite?

e.g. if kind==fixed, then version would need to be unset for the CVE to
show as not-affected & any bug number might also have to be cleared if
the suite was specified as sid?

Should annotations like "Minor issue" be retained or removed?

Or should the script refuse to change kind==fixed & possibly others &
maybe only make changes if kind is None?
