Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported behavior with cargo clippy --fix on a Rust build script that triggers the uninlined_format_args lint. Trace the lint's automatic-fix handling and compare it with the reported diagnostics. Done means the lint is automatically fixed in build scripts, with a regression test covering the behavior.
