Pull request overview
This PR adds an explicit permissions block to the check-dist.yml workflow to address code scanning alert #41. The change follows the principle of least privilege by granting only contents: read permission, which is sufficient for this workflow's operations (checking out code, running builds, and comparing directories).

Fixes workflow permissions
To fix the problem, we should add an explicit
permissionsblock at either the workflow level (top-level, applying to all jobs unless overridden) or within each job. As all jobs in this workflow only require the ability to read repository contents (e.g., actions/checkout), the block should setcontents: read. In.github/workflows/check-dist.yml, you can add the following above thejobs:key on line 10:No other permissions are required. There is no need for additional imports or method definitions; only this block needs to be added in the YAML file.
