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.

This replaces the old approach of fingerprinting every AST node into a string,
which avoided collisions and was simple to implement, but turned out to be
extremely ineffective with respect to both performance and memory.
The collisions are now dealt with in a separate pass, which no longer causes
performance problems because collisions are rare.

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).

This patch adds the CloneDetector class which allows searching source code
for clones.
For every statement or group of statements within a compound statement,
CloneDetector computes a hash value, and finds clones by detecting
identical hash values.
This initial patch only provides a simple hashing mechanism
that hashes the kind of each sub-statement.
This patch also adds CloneChecker - a simple static analyzer checker
that uses CloneDetector to report copy-pasted code.
