 Log Message:
 Update to 1.68 from Jonathan Buschmann in PR 49570.
 
 == Cppcheck-1.68 ==
 
 General changes:
 
 New checks:
 - Multifile checking for buffer overruns and uninitialized variables
 
 Improvements:
 - Libraries are now able to contain platform specific types
 - Improved handling of function overloads
 - Improved handling of integer literal suffixes
 - Improved stability of template parsing
 - Improved accuracy of ValueFlow analysis
 - Improved checking of pointer overflow
 - Support noexcept(false)
 - Support attribute((noreturn))
 - A bunch of additions to several Libraries, especially posix.cfg and qt.cfg
 
 Additionally, lots of false positives and bugs have been fixed and several existing checks have been improved.
 
 == Cppcheck-1.67 ==
 
 General changes:
 - Library files have now a 'format' attribute. Format version 1 is assumed by default
 - Cppcheck does no longer abort checking if unhandled characters (Non-ASCII) are found
 
 New checks:
 - Check for unused return values
 - Detect shift by too many bits, signed integer overflow and dangerous sign conversion
 - Recommend usage of expm1(), log1p(), erfc()
 - Division by sizeof() as parameter to memset/memcpy/memmove/etc. as they expect a size in bytes
 - Several new va_arg related checks:
 -- Wrong parameter passed to va_start()
 -- Reference passed to va_start()
 -- Missing va_end()
 -- Using va_list before it is opened
 -- Subsequent calls to va_start/va_copy()
 - Initialization by itself in initializer list
 - Dead pointer usage when pointer alias local variable that has gone out of scope
 
 Improvements:
 - Support uniform initialization syntax (C++11)
 - Much improvements to value flow analysis
 - Improved AST creation (support placement new, C++-style casts, templates, operator new[], ...)
 - Improved lambda support
 - Support GCC extension attriute((used)) and MSVC extension __declspec(property)
 - Better support for static member variables, inherited variables and namespaces
 - Improved typedef support where multiple variables are declared at once
 - Avoid checking code multiple times by calculating a checksum. Duplicate preprocessor configurations are eliminated by this.
 - Support C++03/C 'auto' keyword
 - HTML report: display 'verbose' message using clickable expandable divs
