RFC consider pre-commit for linters

[adrinjalali]

Would you consider adding pre-commit config to the repo? This wouldn't mean people have to enable it, but would make it possible for people who are happy to use it, to enable it and have a nicer time dealing with linting issues.

It could be a variation of this:

repos:
-   repo: https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks
    rev: v5.0.0
    hooks:
    -   id: check-yaml
    -   id: end-of-file-fixer
    -   id: trailing-whitespace
-   repo: https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff-pre-commit
    # Ruff version.
    rev: v0.8.0
    hooks:
    -   id: ruff
        args: ["--fix", "--output-format=full", "--select=I"]
    -   id: ruff-format

To enable, the user would do:

pip install pre-commit
pre-commit install
