xlsx/conditional-format-rule--contains-text

A worksheet declares a single <conditionalFormatting> block over A1:A10 with a <cfRule> of a specific @type (cellIs, containsText, notContainsText, beginsWith, endsWith, duplicateValues, uniqueValues, top10, expression, colorScale, dataBar).

"""Generate ``fixtures/xlsx/conditional-format-rule--<kind>.xlsx`` fixtures.

Parameterised family exercising the 15 ``cfRule`` ``@type`` values that
python-xlsx supports via its public API — ``cellIs``, ``containsText``,
``notContainsText``, ``beginsWith``, ``endsWith``, ``duplicateValues``,
``uniqueValues``, ``top10`` (both "top" and "bottom" variants),
``expression``, ``colorScale``, and ``dataBar``.

Each invocation writes a one-sheet workbook with A1:A10 populated with
the integers 1..10 and a single conditional formatting rule applied to
that range. The rule-building logic is dispatched on ``--kind``. See
``features/xlsx/conditional-format-rule.json`` for the manifest that
drives the parameter expansion.

Spec notes

Conditional formatting rules live inside <conditionalFormatting sqref='...'> elements on a worksheet. Each <cfRule> carries a required @type drawn from the ST_CfType enum (ECMA-376 Part 1 18.18.12) plus type-specific attributes (operator, text, rank, bottom, ...) and optional nested <colorScale>, <dataBar>, <iconSet>, or <formula> children. This parameterised family exercises the 15 @type values python-xlsx supports via its public rule factories: CellIsRule covers four cellIs operator variants; Rule(type='containsText'|'notContainsText'|'beginsWith'|'endsWith'|...) covers the text-matching and set-membership kinds; Rule(type='top10', bottom=True|False) covers both top and bottom rank rules under a shared @type='top10'; FormulaRule emits @type='expression'; ColorScaleRule and DataBarRule emit @type='colorScale' and 'dataBar' respectively. SpreadsheetML parts use a default namespace with no prefix; XPath binds it as 'x'.
