fix(ci): resolve GitHub Actions security alerts (#371)

Comprehensively resolves all 8 CodeQL security alerts by pinning GitHub Actions
to commit SHAs and adding explicit permissions declarations.

## Security Improvements

**Action Pinning:**
- Pin ALL actions (25 total) to full 40-character commit SHAs
- Add version comments (e.g., # v6) for Dependabot support
- Prevents supply chain attacks via tag manipulation
- Includes previously "immutable" GitHub-managed actions (simplified rule)

**Explicit Permissions:**
- Declare minimal required permissions at workflow or job level
- Follow principle of least privilege across all 9 workflows
- Reduce attack surface from compromised workflows

## Workflows Hardened

- .github/workflows/ci.yml (6 actions + permissions)
- .github/workflows/claude.yml (2 actions)
- .github/workflows/claude-code-review.yml (2 actions)
- .github/workflows/codeql.yml (3 actions)
- .github/workflows/dependabot-auto-merge.yml (1 action)
- .github/workflows/dependabot-verify.yml (3 actions + permissions)
- .github/workflows/e2e-tests.yml (4 actions)
- .github/workflows/release.yml (2 actions - high-privilege workflow)

## Documentation

- Added GitHub Actions security guidelines to docs/agents/workflows.md
- Documents pinning strategy and permissions best practices
- Follows agent-docs.md principles (references only, no code examples)

Resolves CodeQL alerts #1, #2, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9
