Potential fix for https://github.com/synaptiai/siare/security/code-scanning/1

In general, the fix is to add an explicit permissions block restricting the GITHUB_TOKEN to the minimum scopes required. Since this workflow only needs to read repository contents (for actions/checkout and to run tests/linting) and does not update code, issues, or pull requests, setting permissions: contents: read is an appropriate minimal baseline.

The best way to fix this without changing functionality is to add a workflow-level permissions block near the top of .github/workflows/ci.yml, so it applies to all jobs (test and build). This keeps the configuration concise and avoids repeating permissions per job. Specifically, insert:

permissions:
  contents: read

between the name: CI and the on: block. No additional imports, methods, or definitions are needed because this is purely a YAML configuration change for GitHub Actions. All existing steps—checkout, setup-python, pip installs, linting, testing, Codecov upload, build, and artifact upload—will continue to work with read-only repository contents permissions.
