67f654ef612c8dbefb969e6e67c286ea2c2e82d6 doc: Document clang-tidy in dev notes (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  The documentation, and a single commit extracted from #24661.

  Motivation:
  > Incorrect named args are source of bugs, like https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/22979.

  > To allow them being checked by clang-tidy, use a format it can understand.

+Coding Style (C++ named arguments)
+------------------------------
+
+When passing named arguments, use a format that clang-tidy understands. The
+argument names can otherwise not be verified by clang-tidy.
+
+For example:
+
+```c++
+void function(Addrman& addrman, bool clear);
+
+int main()
+{
+    function(g_addrman, /*clear=*/false);
+}
+```
+
+### Running clang-tidy
+
+To run clang-tidy on Ubuntu/Debian, install the dependencies:
+
+```sh
+apt install clang-tidy bear clang
+```
+
+Then, pass clang as compiler to configure, and use bear to produce the `compile_commands.json`:
+
+```sh
+./autogen.sh && ./configure CC=clang CXX=clang++
+make clean && bear make -j $(nproc)     # For bear 2.x
+make clean && bear -- make -j $(nproc)  # For bear 3.x
+```
+
+To run clang-tidy on all source files:
+
+```sh
+( cd ./src/ && run-clang-tidy  -j $(nproc) )
+```
+
+To run clang-tidy on the changed source lines:
+
+```sh
+git diff | ( cd ./src/ && clang-tidy-diff -p2 -j $(nproc) )
+```
