In one of the cases recently added to this check in #110448, the error message is no longer accurate as the comparison is not with zero. #116033 brought my attention to this as it may add another comparison without zero.

Remove the `[!=] 0` part of the diagnostic. This is in line with some other checks e.g. modernize-use-emplace.

```
> cat tmp.cpp
#include <string>
bool f(std::string u, std::string v) {
  return u.rfind(v) == u.size() - v.size();
}

# Before.
> ./build/bin/clang-tidy -checks="-*,modernize-use-starts-ends-with" tmp.cpp -- -std=c++20
tmp.cpp:3:12: warning: use ends_with instead of rfind() == 0 [modernize-use-starts-ends-with]
    3 |   return u.rfind(v) == u.size() - v.size();
      |            ^~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      |            ends_with( )

# After.
