feat: report clang-tidy fixes that could not be applied to other files

[shenxianpeng]

Resolves #490

Before: when part of a clang-tidy fix changes another file and #501 could not apply it (eg. the header is not analyzed, is ignored by --ignore-tidy, the change is outside its changed lines, or it overlaps another fix), the only trace was an info-level log line. In the thread comment and the PR review, the diagnostic looked fully fixed, so the header declaration could silently stay out of sync with its definition.

After: the thread comment, the PR review and the review summary say which file was left out and why, eg.

⚠️ Part of this fix was not applied to src/fix.h because it is not one of the analyzed files.

How:

• TidyNotification gets skipped_fixes: Vec<SkippedFix { file, reason }>. apply_other_file_fixes() records each rejected fix on the note about its diagnostic in the analyzed source file (once per file and reason).
• make_tidy_comment() adds a :warning: line under the diagnostic.
• In PR reviews, TidyAdvice::get_suggestion_help() adds it under the diagnostic in the suggestion, and so does the comment for diagnostics without an applied fix. ReviewComments collects them in skipped_fixes, and summarize() lists them, so they are also shown when suggestions do not fit in the diff or CPP_LINTER_PR_REVIEW_SUMMARY_ONLY is set.
• docs/pr-review-caveats.md explains when a fix for another file is applied.
• Tests cover recording (deduplicated, notes without a match), the thread comment, the suggestion help, the review comment and the summary.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Review comments and summaries now identify portions of clang-tidy fixes that could not be applied, including the affected file and reason.
  • Skipped fix details are included in relevant suggestions and diagnostic comments, helping reviewers locate changes that may need to be applied manually.
  • Reviews with skipped fixes are no longer classified as having no concerns.
• Documentation
  • Clarified when fixes affecting other files are applied and where unapplied portions are reported.

📝 Walkthrough

The change records clang-tidy fixes that were not applied to other files, including the file path and reason. It adds those details to suggestion help, review summaries, and tidy comments, and documents when other-file fixes are applied.

Changes: Skipped clang-tidy fix reporting

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Record rejected other-file fixes cpp-linter/src/clang_tools/clang_tidy/mod.rs, cpp-linter/src/clang_tools/clang_tidy/other_files/mod.rs, cpp-linter/src/clang_tools/clang_tidy/other_files/test.rs	TidyNotification stores skipped fixes with a file path and reason. Rejected fixes are recorded once on a matching source diagnostic note. Tests cover duplicate attempts and fixes without a note.
Add skipped fixes to review suggestions and summaries cpp-linter/src/clang_tools/mod.rs, cpp-linter/src/common_fs.rs, cpp-linter/src/clang_tools/clang_tidy/mod.rs, cpp-linter/src/clang_tools/clang_tidy/test.rs, cpp-linter/src/sarif.rs, cpp-linter/src/rest_client.rs	Review summaries and suggestion help include skipped-fix descriptions. Reviews count skipped fixes as changes. Tests verify warning text, summary formatting, and the comment output.
Add skipped fixes to tidy comments cpp-linter/src/rest_client.rs, docs/docs/pr-review-caveats.md	Generated tidy comments include skipped-fix warnings. The documentation describes the conditions for applying other-file fixes and where unapplied portions are reported.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 73c6f

Newly skipped fixes may not reach the PR when earlier inline comments are culled, and an unusually long skipped-fix summary can exceed the review limit. Resolve the delivery concern before merging.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

The PR satisfies the coding requirements for #490. TidyNotification records the affected file and skip reason, with duplicate entries removed. make_tidy_comment(), review suggestions, review comments, and ReviewComments::summarize() report skipped fixes. The summary omits the no-concerns result when skipped fixes exist and truncates the list within GitHub's comment limit. Tests cover recording, deduplication, comments, suggestions, summaries, review status, and truncation.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes remain within #490. Source changes implement skipped-fix recording and reporting. Tests verify the new behavior. Documentation explains when fixes for other files are applied. No unrelated change is identified.

On CodeRabbit's outside-diff finding at rest_client.rs:257 (no review is posted when every inline comment was already posted before): leaving this as it is. That branch is older than this PR and applies to the whole summary, not just the skipped-fix list. Skipped fixes are attached to the same diagnostics as the inline comments, so if all of those were already posted, the earlier review already listed the same skipped fixes. Detecting a changed summary would mean reading and comparing previous review bodies, which is a separate change.
