Add helpful errors and warnings to parse_named_spans()

[KyleFromNVIDIA]

Add helpful error messages to the ParseErrors, and add a helpful warning when the large-span syntax is used unnecessarily, or when an inline span contains three or more lines.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Invalid span definitions now report clearer errors for malformed directives, paths, lists, and root types.
  • Duplicate span starts, unfinished spans, and nested type conflicts identify the issue more specifically.
  • Missing list indices are reported explicitly.
• New Features
  • Warnings flag large spans covering a single line and tilde spans covering multiple lines, without changing parsed results.
  • Joined spans across multiple lines are handled and covered by tests.

Walkthrough

The named-span parser now reports specific errors for malformed directives, span boundaries, paths, lists, and root types. It tracks large-span starts and content lines, and emits ParseWarning advisories for selected span formats. Tests assert the updated errors and warnings.

Changes

Named Span Parser

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Directive parsing and span starts tests/utils/rapids_pre_commit_hooks_test_utils.py, tests/test_testing_utils.py, tests/rapids_pre_commit_hooks/test_lint.py	The parser reports invalid directive characters and line starts, and identifies duplicate large-span starts by name. Tests assert these diagnostics and update the marked spans for the invalid-directives case.
Span boundaries, merging, and warnings tests/utils/rapids_pre_commit_hooks_test_utils.py, tests/test_testing_utils.py, pyproject.toml	The parser reports span boundary and merge errors, tracks content lines, and emits ParseWarning for selected span formats. Tests cover joined spans, large-span boundaries, and warnings. Pytest treats warnings as errors.
Path and parsed structure validation tests/utils/rapids_pre_commit_hooks_test_utils.py, tests/test_testing_utils.py	Path traversal and postprocessing report specific errors for incompatible keys, missing list indices, and incorrect root types. Tests assert the error messages.

Review comments at @tests/utils/rapids_pre_commit_hooks_test_utils.py:
- Around line 266-271: Update the span line-count calculation near
`content_lines.line_for_pos` so the exclusive `span_end` does not count a
trailing empty line as covered. Handle both `\n` and `\r\n` separators while
determining the last covered line, and preserve the warning’s count for spans
that do not end with a newline.
- Around line 292-296: Update the unfinished-span sorting in the ParseError path
to order paths by their formatted names, using path_tuple_to_str as the sort key
before joining them. This ensures mixed string and integer path components do
not raise TypeError and the error still lists the unfinished spans.
