feat: update claude.yml example to use write permissions

Changed permissions in examples/claude.yml from read to write for:
- contents: read → write
- pull-requests: read → write
- issues: read → write

This allows the Claude Code Action to perform write operations on these resources.

-#### Custom Prompt Templates
-
-Use `override_prompt` for complete control over Claude's behavior with variable substitution:
-
-```yaml
-- uses: anthropics/claude-code-action@beta
-  with:
-    override_prompt: |
-      Analyze PR #$PR_NUMBER in $REPOSITORY for security vulnerabilities.
-
-      Changed files:
-      $CHANGED_FILES
-
-      Focus on:
-      - SQL injection risks
-      - XSS vulnerabilities
-      - Authentication bypasses
-      - Exposed secrets or credentials
-
-      Provide severity ratings (Critical/High/Medium/Low) for any issues found.
-```
-
-The `override_prompt` feature supports these variables:
-
-- `$REPOSITORY`, `$PR_NUMBER`, `$ISSUE_NUMBER`
-- `$PR_TITLE`, `$ISSUE_TITLE`, `$PR_BODY`, `$ISSUE_BODY`
-- `$PR_COMMENTS`, `$ISSUE_COMMENTS`, `$REVIEW_COMMENTS`
-- `$CHANGED_FILES`, `$TRIGGER_COMMENT`, `$TRIGGER_USERNAME`
-- `$BRANCH_NAME`, `$BASE_BRANCH`, `$EVENT_TYPE`, `$IS_PR`
-
 ## How It Works
 
 1. **Trigger Detection**: Listens for comments containing the trigger phrase (default: `@claude`) or issue assignment to a specific user
