Pull Request Overview

This PR adds documentation for the new .shellcheckrc configuration file support. Codacy analysis confirms the changes are up to standards. While the release notes fulfill the acceptance criteria, the PR title is misleading as it suggests the addition of a configuration file rather than documentation. Additionally, the PR description lacks project-specific context. One minor markdown suggestion is provided to improve the rendering of the support email link.

About this PR

• The PR description has been left as the default template and does not provide custom context or justification for this specific change.
• The PR title 'Add Shellcheck configuration file' is misleading; the PR contains only release notes and no functional configuration files or templates.

Test suggestions

• Verify release note correctly instructs users to add a .shellcheckrc file.
• Verify release note correctly outlines the UI navigation path (Repository > Code Patterns > Shellcheck).
• Verify release note contains contact information for support.
