a patch for clang static checker: optimization.StrLengthCalculation

Clang Frontend
1

Hello ,
I implemented another checker for clang static checker.
It checks that some code uses strlen(or wcslen) to calculate the length of an std::string( or std::wstring).

example:

#include <string>
#include <string.h>

void test() {
  std::string s;
  if (strlen(s.c_str()) != 0) {}; // warn

}

Currently, I want to study clang static analyzer through developing some checkers.But I do not know whether my patches will be accepted by the clang community.

StrLengthCalculationChecker.cpp (5.47 KB)

str_length_calculation_test.cpp (599 Bytes)

Great! Are you implementing these only as warnings for the static
analyzer or are you also implementing a check for clang-tidy since the
fix is easy to apply?
