Guide through adding a new flavor named $ARGUMENTS.

Steps:

Update the schema enum in megalinter/descriptors/schemas/megalinter-descriptor.jsonschema.json — add the new flavor name to enum_flavors
Create the flavor directory flavors/$ARGUMENTS/
Update descriptors: Add the flavor name to descriptor_flavors arrays in the relevant megalinter/descriptors/*.megalinter-descriptor.yml files for each language/tool this flavor should include
Run make megalinter-build to auto-generate:
- flavors/$ARGUMENTS/Dockerfile
- flavors/$ARGUMENTS/action.yml
- flavors/$ARGUMENTS/flavor.json
Verify the generated Dockerfile includes exactly the intended linters (check flavor.json for the linter list)
Update CHANGELOG.md in the repository root (not docs/) — add one line under Flavors in the beta section:
```
- Add new `<flavor-name>` flavor for <what languages/tools it targets>
```
Branch naming: use user/add-<flavor-name>-flavor
