> could use the following:
> * clang-format is implicitly described, but should be made an explicit
> requirement.
> * We should describe how to format C++ code with archery.
> * We should describe how to format/lint C++ code with the CMake build.
> * We should describe how Archery discovers the clang-format/cpplint
> executables.
> * We should describe how to use the GitHub Actions bot to try to format code.
