Below warning is raised during Static Code Analysis (SCA) using PVS-Studio in webkitbrowser-plugin component at https://github.com/rdkcentral/rdkservices/blob/sprint/25Q1/WebKitBrowser/WebKitImplementation.cpp#L2717

struct ExitJob : public Core::IDispatch
{
virtual void Dispatch() { exit(1); }

[CWE-670] V762: It is possible a virtual function was overridden incorrectly. See first argument of function 'Dispatch' in derived class 'ExitJob' and base class 'IDispatchType'.

The warning is raised in https://github.com/rdkcentral/rdkservices/blob/sprint/25Q1/WebKitBrowser/WebKitImplementation.cpp#L2717

virtual void Dispatch() { exit(1); }
This warning suggests a mismatch between the Dispatch() function signature in ExitJob and the virtual function it is intended to override.

From Thunder Interface code(https://github.com/rdkcentral/Thunder/blob/R4/Source/core/IAction.h) I could see struct IDispatch is inherited from IDispatchType template.
Here there are two templates IDispatchType which includes Dispatch virtual function - one with argument and other without any argument.

Seems this issue arises because the Dispatch() method in ExitJob does not use the override keyword, making a chance of mismatch with the virtual function from the base class.

By marking the Dispatch() method in ExitJob as an override of the virtual Dispatch() method in the base class I could see the warning is getting resolved.

So wanted to address this warning with fix.
