Potential fix for https://github.com/xnorpx/rust-opus/security/code-scanning/1

In general, the fix is to explicitly restrict the GITHUB_TOKEN permissions for this workflow/job to the minimum required. Since the job only checks out code and runs a Python script, it should be sufficient to grant read-only access to repository contents.

The best fix, without changing existing behavior, is to add a permissions block at the workflow (top) level, right after the name: declaration, setting contents: read. This will apply to all jobs in the workflow that don’t override permissions, including check-version. No other steps use GitHub APIs that require write access, so no broader permissions appear necessary.

Concretely, in .github/workflows/check-opus-version.yml, insert:

permissions:
  contents: read

after line 1 (name: Check Opus Version). No imports or additional definitions are needed because this is a YAML configuration change only.
