So far, the cmake files of Cppcheck needed to be patched in order to
use installed tinyxml2 instead of the bundled version of tinyxml2.
- Introduce the CMake option USE_BUNDLED_TINYXML2 with a default value
of ON. This preserves the behavior as in the past and uses the
bundled version under externals/tinyxml2 by default.
- Usage of the installed tinyxml2 version of a system can be enabled
now using -DUSE_BUNDLED_TINYXML2=OFF as a cmake parameter.
- Some Linux distros do not install tinyxml2*.cmake files, which are
required to find tinyxml2 using find_package().
Try first using find_package(tinyxml2 QUIET) and if this fails, try
again using find_library(tinyxml2_LIBRARY tinyxml2)
* Fix 9298
Tell cppcheck that strcpy returns its first argument, and use that
knowledge in checkTokenInsideExpression.
* Add missing unit tests in cmake
When tests are built, the minimum required cmake version is 3.4.
The file test/CMakeLists.txt uses cmake_policy(SET CMP0064 NEW),
which requires cmake 3.4 [1].

This will now warn when doing something like this:
```cpp
template <class T, class K, class V>
const V& get_default(const T& t, const K& k, const V& v) {
auto it = t.find(k);
if (it == t.end()) return v;
return it->second;
}
const int& bar(const std::unordered_map<int, int>& m, int k) {
auto x = 0;
return get_default(m, k, x);
}
```
The lifetime warning is considered inconclusive in this case.
I also updated valueflow to no tinject inconclusive values unless `--inconclusive` flag is passed. This creates some false negatives because library functions are not configured to not modify their input parameters, and there are some checks that do not check if the value is inconclusive or not.
A few source files were added because of the feature request "Ability to
exclude files and directories from checks".

A CMake build script was updated for these changes.
