Sebastian Poxhofer 3412de84ce refactor(linters): enable oxlint rule prefer-named-capture-group (#44714)
* refactor(lint): enable oxlint prefer-named-capture-group at error

Numbered capture groups (m[1], $1) break silently when a regex is
edited and group order shifts. Named groups (?<name>...) make intent
explicit and accesses (m.groups.name) resilient to reordering.

This enables the built-in eslint rule prefer-named-capture-group,
surfacing 321 pre-existing unnamed-group violations across ~121
files to be burned down incrementally in follow-up commits.

* refactor(versioning): name capture groups for prefer-named-capture-group

Burns down all prefer-named-capture-group violations in
lib/modules/versioning/. Unused capture groups (only reachable via
.test() or whole-match) become non-capturing (?:...); groups whose
value is read become named (?<name>...), with accesses rewritten to
match.groups!.<name> (or destructured from .groups!) instead of
positional match[n]/$n so a future edit that reorders groups cannot
silently break the reader.

Two cases needed extra care to preserve behavior:
- semver/common.ts and poetry/patterns.ts split() on a regex whose
  capture group is relied upon by String.prototype.split to keep the
  separator in the output array; the group is kept capturing and
  named, not converted to non-capturing.
- hashicorp/convertor.ts's semverRegex is only ever embedded via
  .source into a named `(?<version>...)` group elsewhere and never
  matched directly, so its internal groups are safe to make
  non-capturing.

* refactor(datasource): name capture groups for prefer-named-capture-group

Burns down all prefer-named-capture-group violations under
lib/modules/datasource/. Same treatment as the versioning module:
unused groups become non-capturing, used groups get names, and
positional match[n] reads move to match.groups!.<name>.

docker/ecr.ts and pypi/common.ts keep their positional destructuring
(`const [, region] = ...`, `!!m &&`) working unchanged since a named
capture group is still addressable by its numeric index in
JavaScript — only pypi/common.ts's access was rewritten to
m.groups!.owner for clarity since it read a single group directly.

* refactor(platform): name capture groups for prefer-named-capture-group

Burns down all prefer-named-capture-group violations under
lib/modules/platform/. Uses the repo's established idiom of
`match.groups?.<name>` after an optional-chained exec()/match() (see
bitbucket/index.ts hostnameWithoutApiPrefix, gerrit/utils.ts
extractSourceBranch) and `$<name>` in String.replace replacement
strings. Unused groups (markdown/HTML massaging regexes matched only
to be stripped) become non-capturing.

* refactor(manager): name capture groups in ansible-galaxy for prefer-named-capture-group

Burns down prefer-named-capture-group violations in
lib/modules/manager/ansible-galaxy/. newBlockRegEx and blockLineRegEx
dropped their unused outer wrapping group (only the inner key/value
groups were ever read) and named the key/value groups; nameMatchRegex's
remaining unused groups (protocol/user-info/port alternatives) become
non-capturing since only source/hostname/depName/version are read via
.groups. Accesses in collections.ts and roles.ts move from
lineMatch[2]/lineMatch[3] to lineMatch.groups!.key/value.

* refactor(manager): name capture groups for prefer-named-capture-group (batch 1)

Burns down prefer-named-capture-group violations across the first
alphabetical slice of lib/modules/manager/ (ansible through mix).
Used groups get names with accesses rewritten to match.groups!.<name>
(or $<name> in replacement strings); groups whose value is never read
become non-capturing (?:...). Two String.split() call sites
(git-submodules/extract.ts, meteor/extract.ts) keep the established
"named group still readable positionally from the split() result
array" idiom instead of restructuring the destructuring.

bazel/rules/go.ts and buildpacks/extract.ts dockerRef verified
byte-for-byte equivalent before/after via a quick node script since
several nested groups collapsed to non-capturing at once.

* refactor(manager): name capture groups for prefer-named-capture-group (batch 2)

Burns down prefer-named-capture-group violations across the remaining
alphabetical slice of lib/modules/manager/ (npm through terragrunt).
Same treatment as batch 1: used groups get names with accesses moved
to match.groups!.<name> or $<name> replacement strings; unused groups
(wrapping alternations, quantifier repetition groups only consumed via
.test(), or values never read from a match) become non-capturing.

terraform/extractors/others/modules.ts and terragrunt/modules.ts share
near-identical URL-parsing regexes (github/bitbucket/git/azure-devops
ref matchers) — the same set of always-unused `depth=`/`&depth=`
query-string groups is converted to non-capturing in both files.

* refactor(config): name capture groups for prefer-named-capture-group

Burns down prefer-named-capture-group violations in lib/config/.
Used groups get names with replacement strings switched from $1/$2 to
$<name>; the unused separator group in schedule-migration.ts's
afterBeforeRegex becomes non-capturing. presets/parse.ts keeps
assigning through the already-declared `repo` variable rather than
array-destructuring the exec() result, matching this file's existing
style for the other named-group regexes just above it.

* refactor(util): name capture groups for prefer-named-capture-group

Burns down prefer-named-capture-group violations across lib/util/ and
lib/logger/. Same treatment as previous batches: named groups for
values that are read (via $<name> replacement strings, .groups!.<name>,
or destructured from .groups), non-capturing groups where nothing reads
the captured value (e.g. semantic.ts's angular-commit .test()-only
regex). www-authenticate.ts's tokenizer entries each get their own
named group but keep accessing the match generically via match[1],
since a positionally-indexed named group is still readable by index.

* refactor(workers): name capture groups for prefer-named-capture-group

Burns down prefer-named-capture-group violations in lib/workers/.
Used groups get names with $<name> replacement strings; unused
wrapper/alternation groups (e.g. semantic-commit-message.ts's optional
scope/issue wrappers, release-notes.ts's date-heading and
horizontal-rule matchers that are only probed with .search()/replaced
wholesale) become non-capturing.

* refactor(test,tools): name capture groups for prefer-named-capture-group

Finishes the prefer-named-capture-group burndown: test/, tools/, and
vitest.config.mts. Groups whose value is read get names ($<name>
replacement strings or .groups.<name> access); groups only used via
.test()/.search() or that feed a .match(/…/g) call (whose return value
is the array of whole matches, not captured groups) become
non-capturing.

This is the last remaining slice of pre-existing violations, so the
rule (already enabled at error repo-wide) now passes with zero
findings across the whole codebase.

* fix prettier failure

* refactor(lint): use a named capture group in `v8-ignore-no-count`

New rule from main trips the newly enabled `prefer-named-capture-group` oxlint rule.

Renovate's semver versioning strictly implements the Semantic Versioning 2.0 specification. Because the SemVer 2.0 specification does not allow ranges, Renovate's semver versioning also does not support ranges.

Only use the semver versioning when you mean to follow the full SemVer 2.0 specifications strictly. If you need a more forgiving variant use semver-coerced.
