only process code, ignore strings or comments

[maksym-arutyunyan]

This code should not be modified, because it's not the actual code, its a string

    config.type_attribute(
        "ic_nervous_system.pb.v1.Percentage",
        "#[derive(PartialOrd, Ord)]",
    );

same for commented code

#[derive(A, B)]  // Don't use #[derive(E, D)]!

It may be even harder for multiline strings & comments.
A workaround for ignoring tricky cases can be keyword, eg sort-derive: ignore-line, sort-derive: ignore-block, sort-derive: ignore-file.

Yes, currently it's just a string replacement so of course it works that way.

As you say, we need to consider the implementation policy.
