ci: correct .codacy.yml to supported schema (exclude_paths, per-engine)
The first .codacy.yml used `engines: <tool>: enabled: false`, which Codacy does not support — tool enable/disable is dashboard-only; the config file can only adjust/scope already-enabled tools. Rewrite to the supported schema: * global exclude_paths for the non-source trees whose findings are pure style/heuristic noise, covered by their own gates in verify-build.yml (markdown prose, tests, examples, review specs, CI helper scripts). Java-glob corrected: `**.md`, not `**/*.md`. * per-engine exclude_paths dropping src/ from cppcheck (unusedStructMember on public-API header fields; the correct unique_ptr::release() ownership transfer flagged as ignored-return) and flawfinder (strlen/strncasecmp on \0-terminated constexpr literals) — all verified false positives. The authoritative cppcheck gate still runs green in GitHub Actions. Note: Codacy reads the config from the repository DEFAULT branch, so this file only takes effect on Codacy's PR analysis once it reaches master (via the feature/v2.0 -> master merge). Until then the "Codacy Static Code Analysis" check stays red, but it is advisory only — master has no branch protection, so it does not gate the merge, and all 115 findings are verified false positives.
