…onf symbols malloc_conf is an ABI-defined C symbol name required by jemalloc and must be exactly lower_snake_case. The #[allow(non_upper_case_globals)] attributes are load-bearing and cannot be removed; update comments to make this explicit. Mark corresponding CODE_QUALITY_TODO suppression backlog item as complete.

The two #[allow(non_upper_case_globals)] suppressions in src/main.rs guard a load-bearing ABI symbol: jemalloc looks up the exported C symbol `malloc_conf` at process startup, and the name must be exactly that (lower_snake_case). Renaming to satisfy the lint would silently disable jemalloc tuning. Replace the terse comment with a concrete explanation noting the ABI contract so future contributors don't try to remove the allow. Tick the matching item in docs/CODE_QUALITY_TODO.md. Ports upstream PR 1jehuang#123. Closes quangdang46#101

malloc_confis an ABI-defined C symbol name looked up by jemalloc at process startup. The name must be exactlymalloc_conf(lower_snake_case) per the jemalloc ABI, so#[allow(non_upper_case_globals)]is load-bearing and cannot be removed.Replace the terse one-line comments with an explanation that makes this clear to future readers, and mark the corresponding TODO item as complete.
