Aaron Ballman 2f234cbfb0 Allow direct navigation to static analysis checker documentation through SARIF exports.
This adds anchors to all of the documented checks so that you can directly link to a check by a stable name. This is useful because the SARIF file format has a field for specifying a URI to documentation for a rule and some viewers, like CodeSonar, make use of this information. These links are then exposed through the SARIF exporter.

Kristof Umann b0be2ab4d0 [analyzer][NFC] Merge ClangCheckerRegistry to CheckerRegistry
Now that CheckerRegistry lies in Frontend, we can finally eliminate
ClangCheckerRegistry. Fortunately, this also provides us with a
DiagnosticsEngine, so I went ahead and removed some parameters from it's
methods.

Kristof Umann 76a21502fd [analyzer][NFC] Move CheckerRegistry from the Core directory to Frontend
ClangCheckerRegistry is a very non-obvious, poorly documented, weird concept.
It derives from CheckerRegistry, and is placed in lib/StaticAnalyzer/Frontend,
whereas it's base is located in lib/StaticAnalyzer/Core. It was, from what I can
imagine, used to circumvent the problem that the registry functions of the
checkers are located in the clangStaticAnalyzerCheckers library, but that
library depends on clangStaticAnalyzerCore. However, clangStaticAnalyzerFrontend
depends on both of those libraries.

One can make the observation however, that CheckerRegistry has no place in Core,
it isn't used there at all! The only place where it is used is Frontend, which
is where it ultimately belongs.

This move implies that since
include/clang/StaticAnalyzer/Checkers/ClangCheckers.h only contained a single function:

class CheckerRegistry;

void registerBuiltinCheckers(CheckerRegistry &registry);

it had to re purposed, as CheckerRegistry is no longer available to
clangStaticAnalyzerCheckers. It was renamed to BuiltinCheckerRegistration.h,
which actually describes it a lot better -- it does not contain the registration
functions for checkers, but only those generated by the tblgen files.
