Pull Request Overview
This PR fixes false positive warnings for unused private functions when they are marked with the __attribute__((unused)) attribute. The change extends the existing logic that handles [[maybe_unused]] to also recognize GCC's __attribute__((unused)) attribute.
Key Changes:
- Extended the check for attribute-marked private functions to include
__attribute__((unused))in addition to[[maybe_unused]] - Added test cases covering both inline and out-of-line function definitions with the unused attribute
