[clang-tidy ObjC] [1/3] New module `objc` for Objective-C checks

[benhamilton]

Summary

This is part 1 of 3 of a series of changes to improve Objective-C
linting in clang-tidy.

This introduces a new clang-tidy module, objc, specifically for
Objective-C / Objective-C++ checks.

The module is currently empty; D39142 adds the first check.

Test Plan: ninja check-clang-tools

[benhamilton]

• Add missing link lines for clang-tidy/tool and clang-tidy/plugin

[benhamilton]

• Ensure plugin and tool actually link ObjCModule by referencing symbol

Looks good from my side. I'd like to see whether @alexfh has further comments on it.

Is this dependency needed?

We need the license statement for this file, I think.

• @hokein: Add copyright, remove unneeded dep

Whoops, no. Copy-paste error.

I started with GoogleModuleTest.cpp, which is also missing the license statement. Added here.

 Improvements to clang-tidy
 --------------------------
 
+- New module `objc` for Objective-C style checks.
+
 - Renamed checks to use correct term "implicit conversion" instead of "implicit
   cast" and modified messages and option names accordingly:
 
     * **performance-implicit-cast-in-loop** was renamed to
       `performance-implicit-conversion-in-loop
       <http://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/checks/performance-implicit-conversion-in-loop.html>`_
     * **readability-implicit-bool-cast** was renamed to
       `readability-implicit-bool-conversion

 ``clang-analyzer-``    Clang Static Analyzer checks.
 ``google-``            Checks related to Google coding conventions.

 ``llvm-``              Checks related to the LLVM coding conventions.
 ``misc-``              Checks that we didn't have a better category for.
 ``modernize-``         Checks that advocate usage of modern (currently "modern"
                        means "C++11") language constructs.
 ``mpi-``               Checks related to MPI (Message Passing Interface).

 Writing a clang-tidy Check

 So you have an idea of a useful check for :program:`clang-tidy`.
