Summary
This PR adds ignore patterns for AI coding assistant tools that are increasingly popular in 2025-2026:
.aider*- Aider AI pair programming chat history and metadata files.claude/- Claude Code working directory and session filesThese files contain temporary conversation history, context, and metadata that should not be committed to version control. As AI-assisted development becomes mainstream (Claude Code, Aider, Cursor, etc.), having these patterns in the standard Node.gitignore helps developers avoid accidentally committing sensitive or temporary AI-generated content.

This is a minor but timely addition to help the Node.js developer community keep their repos clean as AI tooling adoption accelerates.
