Summary:
So far we used a value of 10 which was useful for testing but produces many false-positives in real programs. The usual suspicious clones we find seem to be at around a complexity value of 70 and for normal clone-reporting everything above 50 seems to be a valid normal clone for users, so let's just go with 50 for now and set this as the new default value.
This patch also explicitly sets the complexity value for the regression tests as they serve more of a regression testing/debugging purpose and shouldn't really be reported by default in real programs. I'll add more tests that reflect actual found bugs that then need to pass with the default setting in the future.

Highlight code clones referenced by the warning message with the help of
the extra notes feature recently introduced in r283092.
Change warning text to more clang-ish. Remove suggestions from the copy-paste
error checker diagnostics, because currently our suggestions are strictly 50%
wrong (we do not know which of the two code clones contains the error), and
for that reason we should not sound as if we're actually suggesting this.
Hopefully a better solution would bring them back.
Make sure the suspicious clone pair structure always mentions
the correct variable for the second clone.

The original clone checker tries to find copy-pasted code that is exactly
identical to the original code, up to minor details.
As an example, if the copy-pasted code has all references to variable 'a'
replaced with references to variable 'b', it is still considered to be
an exact clone.
The new check finds copy-pasted code in which exactly one variable seems
out of place compared to the original code, which likely indicates
a copy-paste error (a variable was forgotten to be renamed in one place).
