Accidentally taking the size of a struct-pointer type or a value of this type
is more common than explicitly using the & operator for the value. This patch
extends the check to include these cases.

Some programmers tend to forget that subtracting two pointers results in the
difference between them in number of elements of the pointee type instead of
bytes. This leads to codes such as `size_t size = (p - q) / sizeof(int)` where
`p` and `q` are of type `int*`. Or similarily, `if (p - q < buffer_size *
sizeof(int)) { ... }`. This patch extends `bugprone-sizeof-expression` to
detect such cases.

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.

Summary:
A common mistake that I have found in our codebase is calling a function to get an integer or enum that represents the type such as:
```
int numBytes = numElements * sizeof(x.GetType());
```
So this extends the `sizeof` check to check for these cases. There is also a `WarnOnSizeOfCall` option so it can be disabled.
