Idea: support "nolint ranges"

[alecthomas]

Revive has the concept of begin/end blocks for nolinting. See here.

This could be useful under some circumstances.

I would like to see this implemented. My use-case: disable gocyclo for a specific exported method without exposing nolint:gocyclo in the godoc.

My use-case: disable gocyclo for a specific exported method without exposing nolint:gocyclo in the godoc.

That's still a problem.

@AlekSi is there a reason you're not able to do:

// Save provides a complex save method!
func Save() { // nolint:gocyclo

[AlekSi]

A better exemple coud be:

// Save provides a complex save method using third-party library with really long method names.
func Save() {
  ...
  very long line of code //nolint:lll
  ...
  another very long line of code //nolint:lll
  ...
  one more //nolint:lll
  ...
}

@AlekSi I appreciate that other use cases exist, I was asking if my suggestion works for your specific challenge above.

I have just had the experience of ignore lll reports like @AlekSi mentioned, and I've been wanting this feature too.
Can I be the assignee for this Issue?

I'm thinking of doing ignore as follows.

func Save() {
  //nolint-begin:lll
  very long line of code 
  another very long line of code
  one more 
  ...
  //nolint-end:lll
}

Please give your opinions on this idea. (And other opinions are also verrry welcome.)
