Enables the users to specify an optional flag which would warn for more dead
stores.
Previously it ignored if the dead store happened e.g. in an if condition.
if ((X = generate())) { // dead store to X
}
This patch introduces the `WarnForDeadNestedAssignments` option to the checker,
which is `false` by default - so this change would not affect any previous
users.
I have updated the code, tests and the docs as well. If I missed something, tell
me.
I also ran the analysis on Clang which generated 14 more reports compared to the
unmodified version. All of them seemed reasonable for me.

Summary:
Header links should have some standard form so clang tidy
docs can easily reference them. The form is as follows.
Start with the analyzer full name including packages.
Replace all periods with dashes and lowercase everything.
Ex: core.CallAndMessage -> core-callandmessage

Summary:
This updates all places in documentation that refer to "Mac OS X", "OS X", etc.
to instead use the modern name "macOS" when no specific version number is
mentioned.
If a specific version is mentioned, this attempts to use the OS name at the time
of that version:
* Mac OS X for 10.0 - 10.7
* OS X for 10.8 - 10.11
* macOS for 10.12 - present

There are certain unsafe or deprecated (since C11) buffer handling
functions which should be avoided in safety critical code. They
could cause buffer overflows. A new checker,
'security.insecureAPI.DeprecatedOrUnsafeBufferHandling' warns for
every occurrence of such functions (unsafe or deprecated printf,
scanf family, and other buffer handling functions, which now have
a secure variant).

The lack of documentation has been a long standing issue in the Static Analyzer,
and one of the leading reasons behind this was a lack of good documentation
infrastucture.
This lead serious drawbacks, such as
* Not having proper release notes for years
* Not being able to have a sensible auto-generated checker documentations (which
lead to most of them not having any)
* The HTML website that has to updated manually is a chore, and has been
outdated for a long while
* Many design discussions are now hidden in phabricator revisions
This patch implements a new documentation infrastucture using Sphinx, like most
of the other subprojects in LLVM. It transformed some pages as a proof-of-
concept, with many others to follow in later patches. The eventual goal is to
preserve the original website's (https://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/) frontpage,
but move everything else to the new format.
Some other ideas, like creating a unipage for each checker (similar to how
clang-tidy works now), are also being discussed.
