I deliberately omitted field names in some xo_emit calls when the output
style was XO_STYLE_TEXT, since I assumed field names wouldn't matter for
human-readable formats. I also couldn’t trigger any warnings with
--libxo:W. However, to stay consistent with xolint expectations and ensure
correctness across all styles, I’ll add proper field names in my next
commit.

The change from conn-state to path-state was a mistake. Thanks for catching
that. I’ll revert it in my next commit.

I initially assumed that only TEXT is intended for human-readable output,
and that XML, JSON, and HTML are all machine-readable formats. That’s why I
treated TEXT separately in my formatting logic. Also, I use space-padding
specifically for XO_STYLE_TEXT to produce a neat, structured, table-like
output, which I assumed wouldn’t be necessary for HTML or other formats.
Could you please clarify why HTML should be handled similarly to TEXT in
this case?

Sure, that makes sense. I’ll update it to use "[--libxo ...]" to indicate
that there are options. Thanks for the suggestion!
