Fix structured binding whitespace false negatives - #469

In `@CHANGELOG.rst`:
- Line 13: Correct the grammar in the changelog entry by changing “one
whitespaces character” to “one whitespace character,” without altering the
surrounding text.

In `@cpplint.py`:
- Line 4422: Scope the structured-binding exception in CheckSpacing to the
specific bracket match instead of suppressing all bracket warnings on a line;
ensure values [index] still reports whitespace/braces when another bracket
contains a valid structured binding. Add a regression test covering this mixed
structured-binding and spaced-subscript case.

One correctness blocker remains in the structured-binding exception: both specifier groups spell constinit as constint.

That means a valid C++26 structured binding such as static constinit auto [x, y] = value; will miss the exception and still report whitespace/braces.

Please change those alternatives to constinit and add a regression case for a constinit structured binding. The mixed structured-binding/subscript case from the earlier review now looks covered.

Re-reviewed current head b497da2.

The previous blocker is resolved: both structured-binding specifier groups now spell constinit correctly, and regression coverage was added. The earlier mixed structured-binding / spaced-subscript case remains covered.

Current pre-commit.ci and CodeRabbit checks are green, and I found no remaining merge blocker on this head. LGTM.

Reviewed current head b497da2. I verified the previously reported mixed structured-binding/subscript case and the constinit case are fixed, and the focused/full validation is green.

I also tested additional structured-binding forms, multiple brackets on one line, attributes, lambdas, comments/strings, and ordinary subscript spacing without finding a regression introduced by this change.

One pre-existing false-negative remains in this touched path: the exemption regexes are not token-bounded, so identifiers ending in auto, return, or delete can be mistaken for exemptions (my_auto [x], myreturn [x], etc.). The same behavior exists on the base commit, so I don't consider it a blocker for this PR, but it looks worth a separate follow-up with regression tests. Any fix should also preserve valid co_return [x] handling.

No merge blocker from me on this head. LGTM.

AI-assisted review of b497da2f561ab66649ffe59cacb377d69589a6c6. All 231 tests pass locally on Python 3.12/macOS. I also compared 12 targeted CLI cases against the base: extra spaces and later spaced subscripts now report correctly, while reference/specifier bindings, attributes, delete [] and co_return lambdas retain their behavior. The previously reported constinit spelling is corrected and covered. No new blocking issue found in this scope.
