refactor: enhance header generation script with default headers and formatting support

ci/generate_checked_functions.py

 Arguments:
     --headers: A list of header file paths to process. Each header file will be parsed, and a corresponding

     For each function, it generates a "checked" version that includes:
       - Null pointer checks for pointer parameters.
       - Error handling using a `Result` struct.
+      - Support for variadic arguments (e.g., ...).
 
     The generated "_checked.h" files include the original header file and define the `Result` struct, which
-    encapsulates the return value and error codes.
+    encapsulates the return value and error codes. The `Result` struct is dynamically generated based on the
+    return types of the functions in the header file.
 
 Dependencies:
     - pycparser: Install it using `pip install pycparser`.
+    - clang-format-14: Ensure it is installed for formatting the generated files.
 
 Output:
     For each input header file, a corresponding "_checked.h" file is created in the same directory.
+    The generated files are automatically formatted using clang-format-14.
