ShellCheck cannot parse Jinja2 template syntax ({{ }}, {% %}, {# #}).
Any file containing these constructs breaks the parser entirely,
producing unreliable findings (SC1054, SC1073, SC1083). Setting
SC_SKIP_JINJA=1 causes filter_shell_scripts() to exclude these files
before they reach shellcheck. Disabled by default so existing behavior
is unchanged.
Tested against https://github.com/openshift/cac-content-fork where
findings dropped from 11,776 to 43 (99.6% noise reduction).
