Potential fix for https://github.com/LukeLarge/opentonapi/security/code-scanning/4

The best way to fix the problem is to add a top-level permissions block in .github/workflows/test.yaml (ideally just below the workflow name: and before jobs:), setting contents: read as the minimal permissions required. This ensures the GITHUB_TOKEN provided to this workflow is restricted. Existing functionality will not be affected, since the workflow only checks out code and runs tests. If tighter restrictions are needed in future, permissions can be adjusted, but for now, contents: read suffices. Only a single block needs to be inserted; no method or import changes are required.

Changes are confined to the top section of .github/workflows/test.yaml.

Pull request overview

This PR addresses a security code scanning alert by adding explicit permissions to the GitHub Actions test workflow, implementing the principle of least privilege for the GITHUB_TOKEN.

  • Adds a top-level permissions block with contents: read to restrict workflow token permissions
  • Follows GitHub Actions security best practices by explicitly defining minimal required permissions
  • No functional impact as the workflow only checks out code and runs tests
