🌟 Highlights

Standard library handling change

GCC has implicit include paths that are forwarded to Clang. Until now these paths were added with -isystem flag, but sometimes the priority of this is too high: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Directory-Options.html The implicit include paths should be searched the last, so -isystem has been changed to -idirafter.
In case of potential backward compatibility break --add-gcc-include-dirs-with-isystem has been introduced for "CodeChecker analyze" command which reverts this change.

ld_logger environment change

CodeChecker log command uses the LD_PRELOAD environment variable for collecting the build commands. This environment variable relies on LD_LIBRARY_PATH which tells where to find the .so file set in LD_PRELOAD. Some build systems overwrite the value of LD_LIBRARY_PATH and for this reason CodeChecker fails to collect build commands. A solution to this problem was to fill LD_PRELOAD with an absolute path. However, this solution doesn't work when the analyzed project is built for multiple target architectures (e.g 32 and 64 bits), since CodeChecker sets a single absolute path based on the host architecture.
If the project's build system is resetting LD_LIBRARY_PATH, then the workaround solution is to extend LD_LIBRARY_PATH with the proper ldlogger.so file: For further details consult this documentation.

Enable checkers by group prefix

Checkers can be enabled by providing a group prefix. For example, cplusplus.NewDeleteLeaks can be enabled by --enable cplusplus. The problem was that checkers are enabled by any name prefix, so this former checker is also enabled by cplusplus.NewDelete which is not an intended behavior. This release fixes this issue.
Also, it was possible to enable checkers by suffix (e.g. --enable NewDeleteLeaks). As of this release, the suffix matching is not checked either.
