checkhelper vs ESPHome

Two years of near-silence ended with a 1.0.0 that adds a whole audit_* family: audit_downloads(), audit_description(), audit_dontrun() and audit_citation(), each parsing package source statically and returning a tibble of hits paired with a suggested fix. check_n_covr() runs R CMD check and coverage in a single test pass instead of two.

The design commitment is static analysis — AST walks via getParseData(), line-by-line Rd reading, no eval() and no namespace loading — so the tool can report on a package it never runs. The existing fix_globals() was reworked the same way: it merges with an existing R/globals.R instead of overwriting it, and separates data.table and rlang pronouns from real undeclared globals so they get an @importFrom line rather than a globalVariables() entry.

Each additional CRAN incoming-check rule is a candidate for another audit_* function; the open question these notes leave is whether the family ever gets a single combined entry point.
