`swift lint` should invoke `swift format lint` to make it more discoverable.

This was reported by @mac9sb swiftlang/swift-package-manager#9654, but I was unable to move the issue to the swift-format repository.

Description

Seems to be happening in the latest version, been using the embedded lint tool for a while now but this is happening recently 6.2.3. Format still works great.

Reproduction

mac@Macs-MacBook-Air Developer % swift lint
error: unknown or missing subcommand 'swift-lint'

Expected behavior

Swift lint should print the help text.

Environment

swiftc -version

Apple Swift version 6.2.3 (swift-6.2.3-RELEASE)
Target: arm64-apple-macosx26.0
Build config: +assertions

Additional information

No response

The original poster then commented:

Ignore this I realise now it's been nested under the swift format command as swift format lint perhaps a note when running swift lint that points users in the right direction would be a good idea?

I've submitted a PR to implement this: #1153. It introduces a swift-lint executable target.
