Potential fix for https://github.com/edinc/java-selenium-framework/security/code-scanning/1

The optimal solution is to add a permissions block at the appropriate level in the workflow YAML file. Since there is only one job defined (test), you can add the permissions block either at the root (applies to all jobs) or directly under the test job. The standard minimal starting point is to set permissions: contents: read, which allows the workflow to read repository contents but not modify them. If future actions require additional permissions, those can be added as necessary with more granular privileges. This change should be made in .github/workflows/ci.yml, immediately after the workflow name: and before on: (for root) or just below the runs-on: line (for job-level permissions).
