rv/rvgen: fix unbound loop variable warning

Pyright static analysis reports a "possibly unbound variable" warning
for the loop variable `i` in the `abbreviate_atoms` function. The
variable is accessed after the inner loop terminates to slice the atom
string. While the loop logic currently ensures execution, the analyzer
flags the reliance on the loop variable persisting outside its scope.

Refactor the prefix length calculation into a nested `find_share_length`
helper function. This encapsulates the search logic and uses explicit
return statements, ensuring the length value is strictly defined. This
satisfies the type checker and improves code readability without
altering the runtime behavior.
