Note diagnostic pieces are an additional way of highlighting code sections to
the user. They aren't part of the normal path diagnostic sequence. They can
also be attached to path-insensitive reports.
Notes are already supported by the text output and scan-build.
Expanding our machine-readable plist output format to be able to represent notes
opens up the possibility for various analyzer GUIs to pick them up.

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.
