The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit only changes a patch file used by the continuous-integration (CI) 'include what you use' (IWYU) linting tool. It tells the linter to recommend C++ standard headers (like <cstdio>) instead of C-style headers (like <stdio.h>) when reviewing Bitcoin Core source code. The change does not alter any compiled Bitcoin Core code, runtime behavior, or network protocol, so it has no direct security impact on users running Bitcoin Core.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as a normal code-quality/CI maintenance commit.

Security signals we found

01

No change to compiled source, build system, or runtime logic

02

No change to cryptographic, consensus, networking, or wallet code

03

Tooling-only patch for a static-analysis/linting helper
