Kimmo Varis 0b463dadb9 GUI: Close application cleanly when exiting while checking.
Earlier commit allowed cppcheck to exit immediately while checking.
This however leads crashes and error logs shown since the thread
termination leaves things in inconsistent state. I thought cppcheck
would close fast enough so these could be ignored. But apparently
not.

So this commits adds new bool mExiting for MainWindow and sets that
to true when exiting while checking. When the checking is ready this
attribute is checked and if it is true the application can now be
cleanly exited.

About

    The original name of this program is "C++check" but it was later changed to "cppcheck".


Compiling

    Any C++ compiler should work.

    To build the GUI, you need Qt. The command line tool doesn't have any dependencies.

    There are multiple compilation choices:
      * qmake - cross platform build tool - but only the GUI can be built
      * Visual Studio - Windows
      * gnu make
      * g++


    qmake
    =====
        You can use the gui/gui.pro file to build the gui.
            cd gui
            qmake
            make


    Visual Studio
    =============
        Use the cppcheck.sln file.


    gnu make
    ========
            make


    g++ (for experts)
    =================
        If you just want to build Cppcheck then you can use this command:
            g++ -o cppcheck -Ilib cli/*.cpp lib/*.cpp


Cross compiling Win32 (CLI) version of Cppcheck in Linux

    sudo apt-get install mingw32
    make CXX=i586-mingw32msvc-g++ LDFLAGS="-lshlwapi"
    mv cppcheck cppcheck.exe
