Add score evaluation modules, sample code, and Bazel targets

This PR introduces a new set of evaluation modules under score/evaluation/*, adding multiple headers such as design_faults.h, concurrency_issues.h, security_issues.h, safe_cpp.h, modern_cpp_syntax.h, and unit_test_quality.h, along with a evaluation_main.cpp driver that exercises the new samples. It also adds cc_library and cc_test Bazel targets for each module, plus top-level aliases and a evaluation_all binary in score/evaluation/BUILD.

Unit test scaffolding is added via score/evaluation/unit_test_quality/unit_test_quality_test.cpp using gtest and gmock, covering TokenBucket, StringProcessor, CircularBuffer, and PaymentProcessor behaviors. Overall, the change set establishes a full evaluation suite with build integration and tests.

Critical

[Security] FormatMessage uses sprintf with a fixed-size char buf[256]. If the combined length of "Code=%d Msg=%s", code, and text.c_str() exceeds 255 characters (plus null terminator), sprintf will write past the end of buf, leading to a buffer overflow. This is a critical security vulnerability and can cause memory corruption or crashes.

Suggested change
sprintf(buf, "Code=%d Msg=%s", code, text.c_str());
#include <sstream> // For std::stringstream
inline std::string FormatMessage(int code, const std::string& text)
{
std::stringstream ss;
ss << "Code=" << code << " Msg=" << text;
return ss.str();
}
Context for Agents
[**Bug**] `FormatMessage` uses `sprintf` with a fixed-size `char buf[256]`. If the combined length of `"Code=%d Msg=%s"`, `code`, and `text.c_str()` exceeds 255 characters (plus null terminator), `sprintf` will write past the end of `buf`, leading to a buffer overflow. This is a critical security vulnerability and can cause memory corruption or crashes.

```suggestion
#include <sstream> // For std::stringstream

{
    std::stringstream ss;

Critical

[Security] LogManager::WriteToFile() uses config_path_ (set by LoadConfig) as the output file path for writing log messages. This is a severe security vulnerability: if LoadConfig is called with a malicious path (e.g., /etc/passwd or ../../sensitive_file), WriteToFile could overwrite arbitrary system files. Additionally, it silently fails if the file cannot be opened for writing.

[Logic] DemonstrateUAF() dereferences an invalidated pointer. Calling it in evaluation_all will trigger undefined behavior and commonly crashes under ASAN/UBSan, which prevents the rest of the samples from running. If this binary is meant to be runnable, guard this call behind a flag or remove it from the default path.

[Testing] The test ProcessPaymentCallsGateway uses ON_CALL to stub the mock gateway, but it never verifies that the Charge method was actually invoked. It only checks the return value. To ensure the interaction with the dependency occurs as expected, you should use EXPECT_CALL.

[Testing] The new path if (n <= 0) return true; in TokenBucket::TryConsume (added in this PR) is untested. Right now every TokenBucket test only exercises positive consumption amounts, so a regression that mistakenly decrements tokens or rejects a zero/negative request would slip through. Please add a test that calls TryConsume(0) (and/or TryConsume(-3)) on a full bucket and asserts it returns true and leaves AvailableTokens() unchanged.

[Testing] The guard if (transaction_log_.empty()) return false; in RefundLast is also untested. Currently the suite never calls RefundLast on a freshly constructed processor, so a regression that accidentally calls into the gateway (or returns true) when the log is empty would not be caught. Please add a test that keeps the log empty, invokes RefundLast, asserts it returns false, and verifies via a strict mock that IPaymentGateway::Refund is never called.

[Documentation] The public header exposes several APIs (e.g. TokenBucket, StringProcessor, CircularBuffer, PaymentProcessor) without any Doxygen/KDoc style documentation describing what each class does, the meaning of constructor parameters, or the semantics of methods such as TryConsume, Split, Pop, and ProcessPayment. Because this header is exported via the unit_test_quality library and intended for reuse, the absence of descriptive comments leaves consumers guessing about expected usage, error cases, and thread-safety guarantees. Please add brief /// or /** ... */ comments for each public class and its methods explaining their purpose, parameters, return values, and exceptional behavior. For example:

/// TokenBucket implements a fixed-capacity rate limiter.
/// @param capacity maximum number of tokens the bucket can hold.
/// @param refill_rate number of tokens restored per `Refill` call.
class TokenBucket {
  /// Attempts to deduct `n` tokens.
  /// @return true if the bucket contained at least `n` tokens, false otherwise.
  bool TryConsume(int n);
  ...
};

This level of documentation will make the exported API self-describing for downstream users.
