Descripción
## Summary
`versionCatalog()` silently deletes standalone comments when they are either:
1. between the final entry of one table and the next table header, or
2. after the final entry at end of file.
The formatting task succeeds, so these comments are removed without an error or lint. This reproduces with the released Spotless Gradle plugin 8.10.2 and at commit `cd8b6e2b4532f6533bd78c0d0ffec8ee37cae0e6` (the merge commit for #3042).
## Environment
- Gradle: 9.7.1
- Spotless Gradle plugin: 8.10.2
- Also reproduced at commit: `cd8b6e2b4532f6533bd78c0d0ffec8ee37cae0e6` (the merge commit for #3042)
- OS: Windows 11 10.0 amd64
- JVM: 21.0.8
## Spotless configuration
```groovy
plugins {
id 'com.diffplug.spotless' version '8.10.2'
}
spotless {
toml {
target 'gradle/libs.versions.toml'
versionCatalog()
}
}
```
## Input
`gradle/libs.versions.toml`:
```toml
[versions]
zoo = "1.0"
# keep this trailing comment
[libraries]
foo = { module = "g:a", version.ref = "zoo" }
# keep this final comment
```
## Steps to reproduce
```shell
./gradlew spotlessApply --stacktrace
```
## Actual output file
```toml
[versions]
zoo = "1.0"
[libraries]
foo = { module = "g:a", version.ref = "zoo" }
```
Both comments are removed.
## Expected output
Both comments should be preserved. Their exact attachment to the preceding table or following header is less important than avoiding data loss.
## Console output
There is no error or lint. The task reports success:
```text
> Task :spotlessToml
> Task :spotlessTomlApply
> Task :spotlessApply

The released-plugin reproduction above was run as a minimal Gradle project using version 8.10.2. The commit-level reproduction was verified separately with local JUnit tests which call `VersionCatalogStep.create()` through `StepHarness` using the same section-boundary and EOF inputs; it was not run through a source-built Gradle plugin.
## Suspected cause
`VersionCatalogStep.parseSections()` stores standalone comments in `pendingComments`, but only attaches them when a later entry is parsed. A new table header clears `pendingComments`, and pending comments are not flushed at EOF:
https://github.com/diffplug/spotless/blob/cd8b6e2b4532f6533bd78c0d0ffec8ee37cae0e6/lib/src/main/java/com/diffplug/spotless/toml/VersionCatalogStep.java#L127-L168
#3042 fixed other comment/quote-related data-loss cases, but these section-boundary and EOF cases remain reproducible at commit `cd8b6e2b4532f6533bd78c0d0ffec8ee37cae0e6` after that change.
Guía de contribución
Línea de trabajo
Empieza en lib/src/main/java/com/diffplug/spotless/toml/VersionCatalogStep.java, especialmente en parseSections() y el manejo de pendingComments. Reproduce los casos de límites de sección y EOF con las pruebas locales de JUnit que llaman a VersionCatalogStep.create() mediante StepHarness. Se considera terminado cuando los comentarios independientes en ambas posiciones sobreviven al formateo sin errores ni pérdida de datos.
