ELIXIR BUMPS ZIZMOR SECURITY SCANNER TO 1.28.0

dependabot @dependabot 1 cited

The Elixir repo updated its CI security action overnight, pulling in the latest zizmor static analysis tooling.

Dependabot merged a routine dependency bump to zizmor-action, upgrading from 0.6.0 to 0.6.1 [1]. The change swaps in zizmor 1.28.0 as the default version for the GitHub Action, bringing whatever improvements and fixes that release carries to Elixir's own CI pipeline. This is a low-risk maintenance merge that keeps the language's security scanning baseline current. No breaking changes flagged, and the bump applies only to tooling, not the core language or standard library.
