devtools: Add clang-format to pre-commit.
What changed, and why it matters
This commit adds a code-formatting check (clang-format) to the project's pre-commit tooling. It does not change any executable code, protocol logic, or security-sensitive behavior. It is purely a developer workflow improvement to enforce consistent C code style before commits.
No security action required. Treat as a normal tooling/CI hygiene change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff modifies .pre-commit-config.yaml to register the pre-commit/mirrors-clang-format hook at v19.1.4. The hook runs clang-format –dry-run -Werror on C files during the manual stage, failing the commit if formatting suggestions exist. No source files, build scripts, or runtime configuration are changed.
