What

Bumps the dev dependency squizlabs/php_codesniffer 3.13.5 → 3.13.6 in composer.lock.

Why

3.13.5 has a known OS command injection vulnerability (CVE-2026-67434 / GHSA-hmqg-cxww-wqhq), which currently makes the Security workflow fail on every PR (first seen on #769, but it fails regardless of branch).

Same spirit as #768 (WPCS 3.4.1 security bump).

Verification

  • composer check-cs passes on 3.13.6 (clean run against develop).
  • Lock-only change; no constraint changes in composer.json needed.

Note for the team

The test (Plugin Check) workflow also fails repo-wide right now for a separate reason: readme.txt says Tested up to: 6.9 while WordPress 7.0 is current (outdated_tested_upto_header error). Bumping that is a product statement, so it's deliberately not part of this PR.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

3.13.5 has a known OS command injection vulnerability
(GHSA-hmqg-cxww-wqhq), which makes the Security workflow fail on every
PR. Dev dependency only; composer check-cs verified working on 3.13.6.
