Felix Berger cb4c12b611 [clang-tidy] performance-unnecessary-copy-initialization: Create option to exclude container types from triggering the check.
Add string list option of type names analagous to `AllowedTypes` which lets
users specify a list of ExcludedContainerTypes.

Types matching this list will not trigger the check when an expensive variable
is copy initialized from a const accessor method they provide, i.e.:

```
ExcludedContainerTypes = 'ExcludedType'

void foo() {
  ExcludedType<ExpensiveToCopy> Container;
  const ExpensiveToCopy NecessaryCopy = Container.get();
}
```

Even though an expensive to copy variable is copy initialized the check does not
trigger because the container type is excluded.

This is useful for container types that don't own their data, such as view types
where modification of the returned references in other places cannot be reliably
tracked, or const incorrect types.

Welcome to the repository of extra Clang Tools.  This repository holds tools
that are developed as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project and the
Clang frontend.  These tools are kept in a separate "extra" repository to
allow lighter weight checkouts of the core Clang codebase.

This repository is only intended to be checked out inside of a full LLVM+Clang
tree, and in the 'tools/extra' subdirectory of the Clang checkout.

All discussion regarding Clang, Clang-based tools, and code in this repository
should be held using the standard Clang mailing lists:
  http://lists.llvm.org/mailman/listinfo/cfe-dev

Code review for this tree should take place on the standard Clang patch and
commit lists:
  http://lists.llvm.org/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits

If you find a bug in these tools, please file it in the LLVM bug tracker:
  http://llvm.org/bugs/
