We don't enforce cppcheck through the CI, although it's there since years. It runs on Ubuntu 18/20, so it's old. For folks, it's likely not discoverable on how to run it locally. Let's make a fresh start. This removes cppcheck from all CI-related code. Instead, it adds it under tools/cppcheck/, including documentation on how to run it locally, bare-matel or in docker.

cppcheck Overview
This can run a (dockerized) cppcheck static code analysis. The docker-compose file represents the status as run as in the CI until it's removal (because it was not enforced). It is now here so that people could use it to find bugs (and use the tool more easily).
cppcheck Usage
From the openairinterface5g root, simply run
./tools/cppcheck/run-cppcheck.sh
This will run cppcheck with options listed in this file, assuming you have it installed. Alternatively, you can run the CI version as of Ubuntu 20 with
cd tools/cppcheck && docker compose up --no-log-prefix
You can upgrade to a newer version by modifying the FROM line in the
docker-compose file.
