Comprehensive static code analysis toolkit for identifying technical debt, security vulnerabilities, performance issues, and code quality problems

/**
 * @file Individual file UI/UX analyzer for comprehensive user experience assessment
 * @description Single responsibility: Detect UI problems and user experience issues in individual frontend files
 * 
 * This analyzer examines individual frontend files to identify user interface and user experience
 * problems that could negatively impact usability, accessibility, and maintainability. It provides
 * comprehensive detection of common UI anti-patterns, excessive inline styling, and interface
 * inconsistencies that reduce code quality and user satisfaction.
 * 
 * Design rationale:
 * - File-level analysis enables focused UI improvements for specific components
 * - Multiple specialized detectors cover different categories of UI problems
 * - Scoring system provides quantitative UI quality assessment for tracking improvements
 * - Pattern-based detection identifies common anti-patterns across different frameworks
 * - Recommendation system provides actionable guidance for UI quality improvements
 * 
 * UI problem detection scope:
 * - Ambiguous labels that confuse users and reduce accessibility
 * - Icon inconsistencies that break visual design patterns
 * - Excessive inline styles that reduce maintainability and reusability
 * - Framework-specific UI anti-patterns and accessibility issues
 * - Performance-impacting UI patterns and rendering inefficiencies
