detect_unused_code v3.4.1 🚀

🛠️ What's Fixed & Improved

• String-Literal-Aware Comment Parsing (Zero False Positives):
  • Upgraded the dead comment detector in UnusedCodeAuditor to be fully string-literal aware.
  • The line scanner now accurately tracks single-line strings ('...', "..."), raw strings (r'...', r"..."), and multi-line triple-quoted strings ('''...''', """...""").
  • Comment delimiters (/*, */, //) contained inside string literals (such as trimmed.startsWith('/*') or CLI documentation strings like "test/mocks/*") are no longer erroneously treated as active block comments.
  • Completely eliminates false-positive detections of dead commented code blocks and false high-comment ratios in active Dart files.

🧪 Test Coverage & Quality

• Added regression tests verifying string literal comment boundary separation.
• Passed 100% test suite (26/26 tests).
• 0 warnings on dart analyze --fatal-infos.
