Lint if (FALSE) / while (FALSE) snippets through commented_code_linter?

Such code is effectively commented code, right?

Seems like a better fit for unreachable_code_linter() to me. But yes, should be linted.

Yeah, I agree that this will be more suitable for inclusion in unreachable_code_linter().

if (FALSE) or while (FALSE) is a valid use in Roxygen comments for examples that shouldn't be run during CRAN checks. But this shouldn't be an issue since (IINM) we don't lint Roxygen comments anyway.

Disagree btw -- that's what \dontrun{} is for :)
