unknown 19b7468bb6 GUI: Fix order of project/global include directories.
Per project include directories must be added to the list before
the global include directories. Include directories are searched
in listed order. So placing per project include directories first
we ensure per project include file is found instead of the global
include file if same file exist in both.

About

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

Manual

    A manual is available online:
    http://cppcheck.sf.net/manual.pdf

Compiling

    Any C++ compiler should work.

    To build the GUI, you need Qt.

    When building the command line tool, PCRE is normally used.
    PCRE is optional.

    There are multiple compilation choices:
      * qmake - cross platform build tool
      * Windows: Visual Studio
      * Windows: Qt Creator + mingw
      * 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. The rules are normally enabled.

        To compile with rules (pcre dependency):
            * the pcre dll is needed. it can be downloaded from:
                http://cppcheck.sf.net/pcre-8.10-vs.zip

        To compile without rules (no dependencies):
            * remove the preprocessor define HAVE_RULES from the project
            * remove the pcre.lib from the project

    Qt Creator + mingw
    ==================
        The PCRE dll is needed to build the CLI. It can be downloaded here:
            http://software-download.name/pcre-library-windows/

    gnu make
    ========
        To build Cppcheck with rules (pcre dependency):
            make

        To build Cppcheck without rules (no dependencies):
            make HAVE_RULES=no

    g++ (for experts)
    =================
        If you just want to build Cppcheck without dependencies then you can use this command:
            g++ -o cppcheck -Ilib cli/*.cpp lib/*.cpp

        If you want to use --rule and --rule-file then dependencies are needed:
            g++ -o cppcheck -lpcre -DHAVE_RULES -Ilib -Iexternals cli/*.cpp lib/*.cpp externals/tinyxml/*.cpp
    mingw
    =====
        make LDFLAGS=-lshlwapi

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
