extract_api.py's own extraction wasn't deterministic across machines, which CI's drift check caught immediately: JSON_HAS_RANGES auto-detects via the standard library's __cpp_lib_ranges feature-test macro, which isn't reliably gated to C++20 mode by every stdlib -- undefined under -std=c++17 with macOS's libc++, but defined under the identical flag with the Ubuntu stdlib CI uses, so parse()/accept()/from_*() extracted different signatures purely depending on which machine ran the extraction. Pinned to -DJSON_HAS_RANGES=0: the deterministic and safe choice, since pinning to 1 was tried first and found to fail to parse on a stdlib without full <ranges> support even when the macro claims otherwise. Also found and fixed a second, independent source of the same class of drift: get_identity_name() used cursor.spelling verbatim for CONVERSION_FUNCTION cursors, which libclang renders as its own internally-canonicalized form of the return type rather than what's literally written. Confirmed for json_pointer::operator string_t() spelling differently on two machines pinned to the identical libclang==18.1.1 wheel, with the JSON_HAS_RANGES fix above ruled out as the cause. Now derived from the cursor's own raw source text instead, immune to libclang's dependent-type resolution differences and incidentally more readable than the libclang-internal forms it replaces. Bumped SURFACE_FORMAT_VERSION to 3 and regenerated all 27 history snapshots and the committed api_surface.json; both fixes are documented in tools/api_checker/history/README.md's format-history log. Also fixes diff_api.py's format_version guard, which only compared the two loaded surfaces against each other and never against SURFACE_FORMAT_VERSION (what this build actually understands) -- two surfaces on the same, newer-than-expected format_version would have silently passed the guard. Remaining fixes are the concretely actionable findings from Codacy's review of the new tools/api_checker/ files: unused imports/variables, a stray f-string with no placeholders. Left the docstring-formatting nitpicks (pydocstyle D2xx/D4xx) and generic subprocess-usage notices alone -- the former has no established convention elsewhere in this codebase's Python tooling to conform to, and the latter are inherent to a dev tool that shells out to git/clang with developer-controlled arguments, not user input.
