Description of your changes

This PR updates the .github/workflows/release.yml workflow to:

• Remove the redundant top-level permissions: contents: read block.
• Ensure the workflow uses only job-level permissions (contents: write, issues: write, pull-requests: write) for the release job.
• Remove the custom GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable, so the default GitHub Actions token is used for semantic-release.

These changes simplify permissions management and follow GitHub Actions best practices.

How can we test changes

• Run the release workflow on a push to main or master and verify that semantic-release can create releases and push tags using the default GITHUB_TOKEN.
• Confirm that no permission errors occur and that releases are
