Subject: [PATCH] Add explicit GITHUB_TOKEN permissions to workflows

Resolves the CodeQL actions/missing-workflow-permissions alerts (#1, #2,
#4, #5, #6) by giving every job an effective permissions block.

- ci.yml: workflow-level `contents: read`. Both jobs are covered by it.
  test_and_lint only checks out the repo, installs Ruby and runs
  `bundle exec rake`; notify_on_failure only posts to a Slack incoming
  webhook and needs no token scope at all, so the inherited read grant
  is already more than it uses.
- cd.yml: `contents: write` on the caller job. shared-config's cd.yml
  runs discourse/publish-rubygems-action (`rake release`, which does a
  raw `git push` of the version tag) and then `gh release create`.
  Anything less breaks the gem release.
- stale.yml: `issues: write` + `pull-requests: write`. shared-config's
  stale.yml runs actions/stale, which comments on and closes both stale
  issues and stale PRs.
- triage.yml: `issues: write`. shared-config's triage.yml runs
  `gh issue edit --add-label triage`, and its own job already declares
  the same scope.

Caller permissions are the ceiling for a reusable workflow, so each
caller grants exactly what the called workflow declares/needs and
nothing more. codeql.yml already had a correct block and is untouched.
