Summary:
This check flags all usages of static_cast, where a base class is casted
to a derived class.
In those cases, a fixit is provided to convert the cast to a
dynamic_cast.
Use of these casts can violate type safety and cause the program to
access a variable that is actually of type X to be accessed as if it
were of an unrelated type Z.
This rule is part of the "Type safety" profile of the C++ Core
Guidelines, see
https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/CppCoreGuidelines.md#-type2-dont-use-static_cast-downcasts-use-dynamic_cast-instead

Summary:
sizeof(some_std_string) is likely to be an error. This check finds this
pattern and suggests using .size() instead.

This is first of series of patches, porting code from my project colobot-lint,
as I mentioned recently in cfe-dev mailing list.
This patch adds a new check in readability module:
readability-inconsistent-declaration-parameter-name. I also added appropriate
testcases and documentation.
I chose readability module, as it seems it is the best place for it.
I think I followed the rules of LLVM coding guideline, but I may have missed
something, as I usually use other code formatting style.

The doc files for checks have been generated from the corresponding header files
using the docs/clang-tidy/tools/dump_check_docs.py script. Committing the script
as well, but the intention is to move all the user-facing docs from header files
to the rST files and add links to .h files appropriately.
