Closes #9778.

As suggested in #9778, this PR adds the OpenSSF Scorecards GitHub Action, which aims to help maintainers keep an eye on their project's supply-chain security posture.

This current version of the workflow has the id-token : write permission. This is necessary in order to publish results to a public REST API the OpenSSF makes available for consumers to check participating projects' results. Naturally, if you'd rather not publish these results, I can modify the workflow to remove this behavior.

The Action also has an associated badge that can be added to the project's README, displaying the repo's score. Let me know if there's interest and I'll happily add it to this PR.

After a thorough discussion in the mailing list (see here and use "[next in thread]" to read the rest of the conversation), the consensus was to not implement the Action.
