Subject: [PATCH] chore: gitignore hosts_*.json files (#1343)

## Motivation

`hosts_*.json` files are local host configuration snapshots that
shouldn't be tracked in version control.

## Changes

Added `hosts_*.json` pattern to `.gitignore`.

## Why It Works

The glob pattern `hosts_*.json` matches any file starting with `hosts_`
and ending with `.json` in the repo root.

## Test Plan

### Manual Testing
- Verified that `hosts_*.json` files are ignored by git after this
change.

### Automated Testing
- No automated tests needed for a `.gitignore` change.
