Potential fix for https://github.com/mlco2/codecarbon/security/code-scanning/6

To address the issue, we need to add an explicit permissions block to the workflow. This block should specify the minimal permissions required for the workflow's jobs to function correctly.

  • General approach: Add a top-level permissions key for the entire workflow to cover all jobs. If specific jobs require additional permissions, we can override the top-level permissions within those jobs.
  • Specific changes: Update the .github/workflows/package.yml file. Add permissions at the workflow root level (before jobs) and configure it with minimal privileges (e.g., contents: read).
  • Implementation details: The contents: read permission will allow read-only access to repository contents, which is sufficient for most operations in the workflow. If specific jobs need write access to specific components (e.g., pull-requests: write), this can be added explicitly within those jobs.
