Summary:
This patch is provided in preparation for removing autoconf on 1/26. The proposal to remove autoconf on 1/26 was discussed on the llvm-dev thread here: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2016-January/093875.html

Summary:
This is http://reviews.llvm.org/D13746 but instead of including <array>,
a stub is provided.
This check flags all array subscriptions on static arrays and
std::arrays that either have a non-compile-time-constant index or are
out of bounds.
Dynamic accesses into arrays are difficult for both tools and humans to
validate as safe. array_view is a bounds-checked, safe type for
accessing arrays of data. at() is another alternative that ensures
single accesses are bounds-checked. If iterators are needed to access an
array, use the iterators from an array_view constructed over the array.
This rule is part of the "Bounds safety" profile of the C++ Core
Guidelines, see

Summary:
This check flags all use of c-style casts that perform a static_cast
downcast, const_cast, or reinterpret_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. Note that a C-style (T)expression cast means to
perform
the first of the following that is possible: a const_cast, a
static_cast, a
static_cast followed by a const_cast, a reinterpret_cast, or a
reinterpret_cast followed by a const_cast. This rule bans (T)expression
only when used to perform an unsafe cast.

Summary:
This check flags all calls to c-style vararg functions and all use
of va_list, va_start and va_arg.
Passing to varargs assumes the correct type will be read. This is
fragile because it cannot generally be enforced to be safe in the
language and so relies on programmer discipline to get it right.
This rule is part of the "Type safety" profile of the C++ Core
Guidelines, see
https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/CppCoreGuidelines.md#-type8-avoid-reading-from-varargs-or-passing-vararg-arguments-prefer-variadic-template-parameters-instead
This commits also reverts
"[clang-tidy] add cert's VariadicFunctionDefCheck as cppcoreguidelines-pro-type-vararg-def"
because that check makes the SFINAE use of vararg functions impossible.

Summary:
This check flags all access to members of unions. Passing unions as a
whole is not flagged.
Reading from a union member assumes that member was the last one
written, and writing to a union member assumes another member with a
nontrivial destructor had its destructor called. This is fragile because
it cannot generally be enforced to be safe in the language and so relies
on programmer discipline to get it right.

Summary:
This check flags all usage of pointer arithmetic, because it could lead
to an
invalid pointer.
Subtraction of two pointers is not flagged by this check.
Pointers should only refer to single objects, and pointer arithmetic is
fragile and easy to get wrong. array_view is a bounds-checked, safe type
for accessing arrays of data.

Guidelines, see

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.
