Updates the old link https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/choosing-what-your-workflow-does/assigning-permissions-to-jobs to where it now currently links to (https://docs.github.com/en/actions/tutorials/authenticate-with-github_token) and an additional relevant documentation that is closer to what the documentation looked like before the page was moved (https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflows-and-actions/workflow-syntax#permissions).

The tutorial "Assigning permissions to jobs", referenced in CWE-275's documentation, has been moved to "Use GITHUB_TOKEN for authentication in workflows". This PR updates the outdated link to point to the new location.
In addition, while the new tutorial is relevant for addressing this specific issue, the
permissionssection of "Workflow syntax for GitHub Actions" is also linked. This page provides more comprehensive examples ofpermissionsblocks and seems to more closely matches the scope and intent of the original article before it was moved (see the archived version: https://web.archive.org/web/20240807160500/https://docs.github.com/en/actions/writing-workflows/choosing-what-your-workflow-does/assigning-permissions-to-jobs).
