Subject: [PATCH] [ci] Suppress typecheck on the ui-wails embed instead of
 skipping main.go
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The previous attempt added client/ui-wails/main.go to the file path
exclude list, but golangci-lint v2's path filter only suppresses
issues from rule-based linters; the typecheck pre-pass that compiles
the package still runs and fails with "pattern all:frontend/dist: no
matching files found" before any rule fires.

Replace the path-level skip with a targeted exclusions.rules entry
that matches just that diagnostic on just that file. The rest of
client/ui-wails (services/, tray.go, grpc.go, ...) keeps being linted
normally.

Validated locally by deleting frontend/dist and running
`golangci-lint run client/ui-wails/...` — 0 issues with this config.
