Conversation
Addresses Azure#3226. Adds a section to README.md documenting the overlap between pylint custom checkers and mypy, with a comparison table and recommendations for when to use each tool. Conclusion: there is minimal actual overlap - most pylint rules check SDK-specific conventions that mypy cannot enforce. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Fixes #3226
Adds documentation analyzing the overlap between custom pylint checkers and mypy, with a comparison table and recommendations.
Key Finding
There is minimal actual overlap — most pylint rules check SDK-specific conventions (docstrings, naming, imports) that mypy cannot enforce. The two tools are complementary.
