The Clang Static Analyzer differs from other analyzers in that it does
not run a binary produced by the build process, but looks at source
files instead. It is therefore completely unrelated to any run
configurations that may or may not exist for the project. This has been
ignored so far, with these two main consequences:
- When running the analyzer, the name of some random run
configuration appears in the application output pane, which makes
it look to the user as if the corresponding executable has been
run, which it has not.
- For projects without run configurations (e.g. libraries),
analyzing does not work out of the box, which makes no sense
conceptually.
So we now create our own run special run configuration (not visible in
the UI) and run it directly via runRunConfiguration() instead of using
the currently active run configuration via runProject().
This fixes both issues listed above.

So users can see how many issues were found before the analyzer has
finished, as well as browse them.

This patch deals with what is likely the most common use case:
Filtering specific messages at a particular location. The current
granularity is essentially per-file (and per-function, where possible),
which seems more useful than taking line numbers into
account, as that would not be robust with regards to code changes elsewhere
in the file. We can fine-tune this if the need arises.

There is no reason why the status of the analyzer run should disappear
after a few seconds.

These test the complete workflow as the user experiences it when
clicking "Start".
Intended usage:
(1) Run sdktool to set up a kit with the toolchain you want
to test against (using a temporary directory).
The tests assume exactly one Kit to be present.
(2) Start Creator with a matching settings path and
"-load ClangStaticAnalyzer -test ClangStaticAnalyzer".
(3) Repeat until all toolchains have been tested.
The initial implementation tests one trivial source file
with both qbs and qmake.

This plugin adds "Clang Static Analyzer" to the Analyze mode, which
processes all implementation/source project files of the current
project. For this, it will call the clang executable for each file.
The found diagnostics will be displayed in a view similar to the one
used in "Valgrind Memory Analyzer".
The user can specify the clang executable to use and the number of
concurrent processes to launch in Menu: Tools > Options > Analyzer >
Clang Static Analyzer.
Main TODOs:
* Fiddle around the appropriate command line options, currently only
defines and include paths are passed on.
* Tests on Windows / OS X.
* Remove dependency to clangcodemodel by moving the functions that
create command line arguments to CppTools. Mostly they are not even
specific to clang (but would also work with gcc).
* Maybe limit to a range of tested clang versions.
* How to deal with directory containing all the log files after the
user starts a new run or Creator is shut down? (delete it? leave it
there? make it configurable?).
* Find out how to properly integrate the tests.
Imaginable future additions:
* Adding a button to load result/log files from a directory, e.g. if
the user used the 'scan-build' approach.
* Adding a button with a filter menu in order to display only
diagnostics from certain categories, similar to "Valgrind Memory
Analyzer".
