Document areas of code complexity

[cclauss]

As discussed at #2360 (review), let's set upper limits on or at least document code complexity.

Ruff provides one McCabe metric and four Pylint refactor metrics (even more in --preview mode).

This pull request shows three ways to document where code complexity exists.

1. noqa plus a few lines in the docstring. (Semi-automated generation with a script.)
2. Just noqa.
3. tool.ruff.lint.per-file-ignores in pyproject.toml
