Update S3776: "Cognitive Complexity" should provide values for remediation function and cost

[Errrric]

Hello,
I just started to use your great plugin to review my code, however i just encountered an issue that think would be nice to fix.

Description

The cognitive complexity rule "Cognitive Complexity of methods should not be too high" trigger issues, but do not increase technical debt. There is not remediation cost formula associated with the rule.

Repro steps

1. Step A
   Activate the "Cognitive Complexity of methods should not be too high" rule if necessary.
   Create a complex method ( or lower the rule threshold ) in order to create a violation in a code sample.

2. Step B
   Analyse it. And you'll see an issue, but no increase of the technical debt in the SonarQube App

Expected behavior

There should be an effort associated with the issue

Actual behavior

No cost increase.

Known workarounds

None

Thanks for your work.

Hi @Errrric, thanks for the feedback, we will fix this in the next release of SonarC# in a few weeks. The fix will not be perfect though, because for technical reasons SonarC# supports only Constant remediation functions. I override the function in RSPEC to Constant/10min (it could vary depending on the complexity, but that's what the other functions are).

Thanks for your quick answer and your support !
