fix: remove npm-publish.yml, harden CI workflow security

- Remove npm-publish.yml (wrong-language CI workflow for Python repo)
- Add persist-credentials: false to all checkout steps
- Add top-level permissions: contents: read to ci.yml, test.yml, publish.yml
- Update actions/checkout v4->v6 and setup-python v5->v6 in ci.yml
- Update actions/checkout v4->v6 in pages.yml
