Summary

Seems like we're a bit late again, but not too late! I've been absent for a large portion of the 12.0.0's development, so please feel free to point out if I missed anything. Same thing with contributors I forgot to add as a reviewer.

We have a bad track record of finishing, but forgetting to enable GSoC projects -- did the same happen to SmartPtrChecker or that still needs refinement?

You can push this directly to the release/12.x branch when it's ready.

Still needs refinement. One large missing piece is that inlined defensive check suppressions weren't generalized for smart pointers.

I suggest expanding a bit: "... is a WebKit coding convention checker that flags raw pointers to reference-counted objects captured by lambdas and suggests using intrusive reference-counting smart pointers instead." Something similar for the next item.
