LOG: [clang-tidy][docs] Avoid recommending links to non-free coding guidelines (#160745)
Based on [this
thread](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/will-clang-frontend-plan-accept-misra-check-tools/84754),
it might not be OK to link to MISRA/other coding guidelines that have
tight restrictions on redistribution.
