CloneDetector should be able to detect clones with renamed variables.
However, if variables are referenced multiple times around the code sample,
the usage patterns need to be recognized.
For example, (x < y ? y : x) and (y < x ? y : x) are no longer clones,
however (a < b ? b : a) is still a clone of the former.
Variable patterns are computed and compared during a separate filtering pass.

So far the CloneDetector only respected the kind of each statement when
searching for clones. This patch refines the way the CloneDetector collects data
from each statement by providing methods for each statement kind,
that will read the kind-specific attributes.
For example, statements 'a < b' and 'a > b' are no longer considered to be
clones, because they are different in operation code, which is an attribute
specific to the BinaryOperator statement kind.

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.
