This fixes the crash on with struct fields containing unknown types
reported on the forum:
https://sourceforge.net/p/cppcheck/discussion/general/thread/d64551cc55/#5f0f
The suggested patch doesn't handle the cases when there are struct
fields with arrays containing unknown types. So the addon will not
generate warnings in these cases. The problem is that Cppcheck doesn't
generate valueType-pointer information for unknown types in the dump
file. When adding this in symboldatabase.cpp, MISRA addon will generate
a lot of false positives because we depend on the null value of
valueType.
So I suppose it better to left this as is, to don't break the addon for
such rare cases.
This commit allows to specify expected suppressions in the included
header files. This is necessary to verify MISRA checkers, which make
requirements for header files. For example, Rule 8.2 requires adding
prototypes for each function to the header files.
This commit makes CppcheckData class to use instance attributes instead
of class attributes.
Since class attributes are mutable (list), when you append to them, they
don't promote to instance variable which means when you call parsedump()
multiple times data just gets appended to them.

Fix false positives for the function calls with "const pointer to const
value" arguments: https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/9967.
The variable.valueType.constness have same encoding as encoding as
ValueType::constness in Cppcheck.
C89 standard defines enum members as enumeration contants at ch.
6.4.4.3, and they are always known at compile time.
This commit fix false positives for rule 18.8 (and possible other rules
that check "constentess") with enumeration members.
Fix Trac#9913
When we include the header file with variables definitions, Cppcheck
will write `variables` entries with line numbers from the header to the
dump file.
If the line number in the header file and the source file are equal,
misra.py performs an additional check what leads to false positives.
Minimal example that demonstrates the problem:
`misra_fp.c`:
```c
void test_12_3_fp(void)
{
//Initialize the events queue
QEQueue_init(&me->deferred_event_queue, me->deferred_events_queue_buf, Q_DIM(me->deferred_events_queue_buf));
}
```
`misra_fp.h`:
```c
static const uint32_t timer_max_blocking_call_us;
```
This commit closes trac ticket 9874.
When checking multiple files if the same violation is encountered from
an included file then the violation is both displayed and counted in the
error summary.
Track each violation by location and error number and if the violation
has been previously encountered then do not report it again.
This commit add two additional cases for rule 20.3:
1. Support violations in the following format: `#include file.h`
2. Better multiline include directives and inline comments support.
See added test cases for examples.
Define different sets of reserved keywords for C90 and C99.
This will fix false negative for compliant example, defined in MISRA
document, and close trac 9506.
* parser: Parse standards node at start event
This required, because we can loose data at the end event.
* misra.py: Fix 5.4 standard-dependent error
By default Cppcheck use C11 standard, so this change fix false positives
for rule 5.4 with C99.
* travis: force --std=c89 for misra.py
* addons: Reduce memory consumption
Parse dump files incrementaly using ElementTree.iterparse. Clean unused
resources during parsing. This method is explained in following
article: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-hiperfparse/
Memory consumption was reduced about 30% (measured with mprof),
execution time increased about 5% (measured with time utility).
More description available in PR.
* Switch to lxml and update iterparse routines
Use lxml module instead default xml.etree. Lxml provides convenient
wrappers around iterparse method that accepts `tag` argument. That
easer incremental parsing routines to select specific tags from roottree
like `dump` and `dumps`.
Element.clear() method was replaced by `lxml_clean` because lxml
keeps additional information to nodes that should be removed.
Added note about large consumption RAM on large dump files.
This commit doesn't solve this problem completely, but provides a way
to improve current parser to add incremental Configuration serialization
later.
* Working on iterative parser
* Added iterative Configurations parser
* fix
* Fix varlist iteration
* make sure that standards node was loaded
This commit will add feature to detect essential type categories
for operators of ternary operation.

This commit fixes __repr__ methods introduced in d538315268. Fields that recursively links to other cppcheckdata objects was removed to avoid max recursion depth crash on printing.
* misra.py: R14.2: Verify for counter modification
Add additional check to detect modification of loop counter in loop
body. Related issue: https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/9490
Add small fix that treat all assignment operators defined in N1750
6.5.16 as has side affects. This will affects rules 13.1, 13.3, 13.5
and allow to catch some false negatives.
* Add tests for fixed FPs for R13.{1,5,6}
* fix
* use isAssignmentOp from cppcheck data
* remove unused set
* handle case with empty body or syntax error
* add test with outer variable
* Fix FP in nested loops, add tests
* Fix FP on outer variables
* Fixup false positives for not loop counters
* y2038 addon: Fix that check can never return True, add tests
At the beginning of `check_y2038_safe()` the variable `y2038safe` should
be initialized with `True` and only be set to `False` if there are any
issues. Otherwise it could never become `True`.
In the unit tests the return value of `check_y2038_safe()` is now
verified. But it does not yet work for the "good" example. The "good"
example also returns `False` since it finds warnings in the include
file. So this verification is marked with a "FIXME" comment.
* y2038 tests: Add "good" test file that does not use time functionality
The test file y2038-test-5-good-no-time-used.c does not use any time
functionality so the y2038 addon is not allowed to issue any warnings
and the check must return with `True` (code is safe).
