Summary:
This patch extends the already existing facility to add 'const' to variables
to be more flexible and correct. The previous version did not consider pointers
as value AND pointee. For future automatic introduction for const-correctness
this shortcoming needs to be fixed.
It always allows configuration where the 'const' token is inserted, either on
the left side (if possible) or the right side.
It adds many unit-tests to the utility-function that did not exist before, as
the function was implicitly tested through clang-tidy checks. These
tests were not changed, as the API is still compatible.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Removed the uses of the allOf() matcher inside node matchers that are implicit
allOf(). Replaced uses of allOf() with the explicit node matcher where it makes
matchers more readable. Replace anyOf(hasName(), hasName(), ...) with the more
efficient and readable hasAnyName().

New option added to these three checks to be able to silence false positives on
types that are intentionally passed by value or copied. Such types are e.g.
intrusive reference counting pointer types like llvm::IntrusiveRefCntPtr. The
new option is named WhiteListTypes and can contain a semicolon-separated list of
names of these types. Regular expressions are allowed. Default is empty.

Summary:
This will prevent the check warning the variables which have been
implicitly added by compiler, like the following case (in for-range loop):
the variable '__end' is copy-constructed from a const reference...

Summary:
Also trigger the check in the following case:
void foo() {
ExpensiveToCopy Obj;
const auto UnnecessaryCopy = Obj.constReference();
Obj.onlyUsedAsConst();
}
i.e. when the object the method is called on is not const but is never
modified.

Summary: Since local static variables can outlive other local variables exclude them from the unnecessary copy initialization check.

llvm-svn: 256636
Summary:
The patch adds a new ClangTidy check that detects when expensive-to-copy types are unnecessarily copy initialized from a const reference that has the same or are larger scope than the copy.
It currently only detects this when the copied variable is const qualified. But this will be extended to non const variables if they are only used in a const fashion.
