Pull request overview
This PR fixes a false positive in the trailing semicolon checker that incorrectly flagged compound literal references (address-of expressions with struct compound literals like &(struct name){}) as having unnecessary semicolons. The fix adds a condition to skip the warning when the code contains the pattern of an ampersand followed by a struct compound literal.
- Adds logic to detect and exempt
&(struct ...){}patterns from semicolon warnings - Includes a test case to verify the fix
