Potential fix for https://github.com/collinmcneese/github-webhook-dispatcher/security/code-scanning/48

To fix the problem, you should explicitly add a permissions block to the workflow (at the top level or per job) to limit the GITHUB_TOKEN permissions to the minimum necessary. Since the jobs shown (dependency review and validation) do not require write access, the minimal permission is contents: read. This can be applied at the root of the workflow YAML file, ensuring all jobs inherit these restricted permissions, unless overridden.

To implement this, add the following block after the name field and before the on field in .github/workflows/ci.yml:

permissions:
  contents: read

No additional methods, imports, or dependencies are needed.
