v0.6.1: Fix False Security Categorization

🐛 Bug Fixes

This patch release fixes a critical issue where pr-vibe was incorrectly categorizing ESLint style warnings as security vulnerabilities.

What's Fixed

• ✅ Type imports (e.g., "prefer type-only import") now correctly categorized as STYLE, not SECURITY
• ✅ Empty catch blocks now correctly categorized as CODE_QUALITY, not SECURITY
• ✅ Console.log statements now correctly categorized as DEBUG, not SECURITY
• ✅ Commit messages now accurate: "style: Apply code formatting" instead of "SECURITY: Fixed vulnerability"

Technical Details

• Added context-aware categorization that checks style patterns before security patterns
• Introduced new STYLE and DEBUG categories for better classification
• Enhanced bot comment parsing to understand CodeRabbit severity indicators (⚠️ ≠ security)
• Added comprehensive test suite to prevent regression

Feedback

This fix addresses user feedback from PR lvrginc/application#9659 where style issues were causing unnecessary alarm by being flagged as security vulnerabilities.
