Potential fix for https://github.com/eman/nwp500-python/security/code-scanning/1

To fix this issue, we should add a top-level permissions: block as recommended, setting the minimal required privileges. For common CI workflows such as this, it is sufficient to set contents: read at the top level, which ensures jobs only have permission to read source contents, not to push or modify content, create PRs, releases, etc. Since there's no step in the workflow requiring elevated privileges (e.g., write, issues, or actions permissions), the block should look like:

permissions:
  contents: read

This should be placed as a top-level key immediately under the name: and (optionally) before the on: key for clarity. No further changes are necessary, since none of the jobs appear to require more than this. If any individual job ever needs elevated permissions, it can be further scoped using its own job-specific permissions: block.
