Code Review

This pull request adds the yara-x tool to the registry, defining its GitHub backend, description, and a version check test. Feedback suggests adding an alias for 'yr' to match the binary name and simplify installation, as well as updating the test's expected output to ensure compatibility with recent upstream changes to the version string format.

Greptile Summary

Adds a registry entry for yara-x (the YARA-X pattern-matching tool from VirusTotal) using the github:VirusTotal/yara-x backend. The entry follows the standard structure used by other registry tools in this repo, and the test command and expected substring check are correct.

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge; only a P2 discoverability suggestion present.

Single-file registry addition with correct format, valid backend reference, and a working test definition. No logic or correctness issues found.

No files require special attention.
