Certain linters and formatters support fixing linting and formatting
issues (fix mode). Before this change, Super-linter runs linters and
formatters in a mode that doesn't modify the source code in any way
(check only mode).
With this change, Super-linter supports running linters and formatters
in fix mode if explicitly requested by the configuration. If the
configuration includes a variable named FIX_<language_name>,
Super-linters modifies the command to run the linter or formatter for
<language_name> to enable fix mode.
The modifications to the linter or formatter command that Super-linter
applies depend on what is the default for a particular linter: it either
removes or adds options to the command to run the linter or formatter.
- When a commit is a merge commit, adjust the revision so that it
selects the correct parent.
- Add relevant tests.
- Extract the logic to initialize a Git repository for tests in a
dedicated function.

- Remove the previous summary file is present to avoid showing stale
contents from old summaries.
- Extract the logic to write summary heading and lines to dedicated
functions in output.sh to make it easier adding new formats in the
future.
- Store Super-linter outputs in the main output directory.
- Update README with a few fixes and details about outputs.
- Add missing test cases for when the configuration didn't enable any
output.
- New SAVE_SUPER_LINTER_OUTPUT variable. When set to true,
saves super-linter output to ${DEFAULT_WORKSPACE}/${SUPER_LINTER_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_NAME}
- New SUPER_LINTER_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_NAME variable to set the output
directory name instide the default workspace.

- Don't require Git SHA and branch validation when
IGNORE_GITIGNORED_FILES=true because we only need to validate that the
workspace is a Git repository in this case.

- Configure Ruff to store its cache in a temporary directory inside the
container by default. Users can still override this by providing a
configuration file for Ruff.
- Add tests to ensure that super-linter deletes temporary files and
directories.

- Write log messages in the log file according to the LOG_LEVEL that the
user configured (or the default), instead of printing all the messages
regardless of LOG_LEVEL to the log file.
- Don't emit colors if there is no terminal

Introduce a new configuration variable, BASH_EXEC_IGNORE_LIBRARIES. If
set to true, the behaviour of bash-exec is modified: if a shell file has
a file extension and no shebang line, it is ignored, i.e., allowed to be
non-executable. This allows files that are only every sourced from other
shell files, acting as libraries and not executables, to have no
executable bit set without failing the bash-exec linter.
In case of linting errors, print stdout and stderr (if present)
at the ERROR level if users set LOG_LEVEL to NOTICE to avoid
failures without any explanation.
Terrascan runs initialization anyway when scanning files, so there's no
point in running it at build time. Also, this works around a Terrascan
bug that caused it to fail its initialization if $HOME/.terrascan
directory is not present. This happens on GitHub Actions because it
configures a $HOME directory that is different from ours.
- Super-linter uses the LOG_LEVEL variable to let the user
configure the desired log level. Checkov and Renovate use a variable
with the same name for the same purpose, but accept a
different set of values, and exit with an error if it gets an unknown
value for that variable.
- Refactor the VERBOSE log level to the more commonly used INFO.
Configuration validation will warn users if they use VERBOSE and
instruct them to use INFO instead. This is not a breaking change
because super-linter falls back on INFO if VERBOSE is set.
- Remove the TRACE log level because we rarely used it. As with VERBOSE,
configuration validation will warn the user. Fall back to DEBUG if the
user configured LOG_LEVEL to VERBOSE.
