Description

These lints suggest replacing #[allow] with #[expect] and require a reason to be provided, which improves code quality.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Search the codebase for `#[allow]` attributes and replace them with `#[expect]` along with a reason string. Run `cargo clippy` to verify the lints pass.
