Add check-obsolete-constructs checker for nested includes.
As a first step toward minimizing the number of public headers that include other public headers, add a checker to check-obsolete-constructs that will error out on any such inclusion that’s not on a whitelist. The whitelist is initialized to all of the nested inclusions that already exist; subsequent patches will remove nested inclusions and shrink the whitelist, hopefully to the point where we only have nested inclusions as mandated by the relevant standards. Hurd headers and Sun RPC headers and interface definitions are exempt from these checks. The former is because minimizing their cross-inclusions would require making Hurd-specific design decisions, which I feel is best left to the Hurd maintainers. The latter is because they are obsolete in glibc; cleanups should be done under the auspices of TIRPC. * scripts/check-obsolete-constructs.py (UNIVERSAL_ALLOWED_INCLUDES, HEADER_ALLOWED_INCLUDES) (SYSDEP_ALLOWED_INCLUDES, NESTED_INCLUDES_EXEMPT_RE) (get_allowed_nested, NestedIncludeCheckerWhitelistOnly) (NestedIncludeChecker): New. (HeaderChecker): Instantiate and run a NestedIncludeChecker for each header.
