Potential fix for https://github.com/clowdhaus/docker-registry/security/code-scanning/4

To fix the problem, explicitly set the permissions block in the workflow file. The most secure and maintainable way is to set it at the top level of the workflow, applying least privilege to all jobs unless overridden. From inspection, none of the jobs require any more than read access to repository contents—they only check out code and run checks/lints/tests, and do not interact with GitHub APIs to open PRs, push code, etc. Therefore, the permissions block should specify:

permissions:
  contents: read

This should be added directly after the name field (after line 1), before the on: block on line 3. No changes are needed within jobs unless one needs broader privileges (which is not evident from the code shown).
