Just a quick update that #4243 is in and the linting bot is now 
running.
As I mentioned earlier there are still many trivial flags of 
Dscanner's static analysis that could be enabled. I marked them 
with "FIXME", so @anyone feel free to have a look.
Moreover (once dub is 1.0 and released together with dmd), we 
want to enable the same linting in the Makefile.

@Mark Isaacson: Great idea, but that sounds more like a plugin 
for an IDE. dfmt usually fixes most of the style issues, however 
Dscanner does also analysis of the code.
