[WIP] Add minimum token permissions for all github workflow files

[Copilot]

• Analyzed all GitHub workflow files in .github/workflows/ directory (20 files total)
• Verified that all files have root-level permissions blocks
• Confirmed that all root-level permissions are correctly formatted as either:
  • permissions: read-all (ossf-scorecard.yml - correct per requirements)
  • permissions: followed by contents: read (all other files - correct per requirements)
• Verified that job-level permissions are appropriately set for write operations where needed
• Reviewed specific job-level permissions for edge cases - all are properly configured
• Validated reusable workflow permission inheritance - all calling jobs have correct permissions
• Final verification completed - no changes needed

Final Analysis Summary:
All 20 GitHub workflow files already fully comply with the OpenSSF Scorecard Token-Permissions requirements. No changes are needed.

Root-level permissions status:

• ✅ 19 files have permissions: contents: read (correct minimal permissions)
• ✅ 1 file has permissions: read-all (ossf-scorecard.yml - correct per rule 3)

Job-level permissions analysis:

• ✅ 10 files have appropriate job-level write permissions with explanatory trailing comments
• ✅ 10 files require only read permissions (no job-level permissions needed)
• ✅ All write permissions are properly scoped and documented

Reusable workflow analysis:

• ✅ 4 reusable workflows called from build.yml only require contents: read (no job permissions needed)
• ✅ 1 reusable workflow call in owasp-dependency-check-daily.yml has correct contents: read and issues: write permissions

Key compliance points verified:

• All workflows have root-level permissions as first priority
• All write permissions are at job-level with appropriate comments
• No excessive permissions granted
• Reusable workflow inheritance properly configured
• All permissions follow the principle of least privilege

Files analyzed:
assign-reviewers.yml, auto-spotless-apply.yml, auto-spotless-check.yml, backport.yml, build.yml, codeql.yml, fossa.yml, gradle-wrapper-validation.yml, issue-management-feedback-label.yml, issue-management-stale-action.yml, ossf-scorecard.yml, owasp-dependency-check-daily.yml, prepare-patch-release.yml, prepare-release-branch.yml, release.yml, reusable-markdown-link-check.yml, reusable-markdown-lint.yml, reusable-misspell-check.yml, reusable-shell-script-check.yml, reusable-workflow-notification.yml

Conclusion:
The repository already has minimum token permissions properly implemented across all GitHub workflow files. The OpenSSF Scorecard Token-Permissions requirement is fully satisfied.

Fixes #89.

I've completed a comprehensive analysis of all 20 workflow files. All files already have proper minimum token permissions:

Root-level permissions: ✅ All correct

• 19 files have permissions: contents: read
• 1 file has permissions: read-all (ossf-scorecard.yml - correct per requirements)

Job-level permissions: ✅ All correct

• All jobs with write operations already have appropriate job-level permissions
• Reusable workflow calls requiring only contents: read correctly omit job-level permissions (per issue rule 3)
• The one reusable workflow call requiring issues: write (owasp-dependency-check-daily.yml) already has correct permissions

Status: ✅ No changes needed
All workflows already fully comply with OpenSSF Scorecard Token-Permissions requirements.
