This CL introduces two vet checks. Statistics and code below are from a recent 50mb corpus of public code.
1. Check for redundant conjunctions and disjunctions. This check caught 26 instances, of which 20 were clearly copy/paste bugs and 6 appeared to be mere duplication. A typical example:
if xResolution < 0 || xResolution < 0 {
panic("SetSize(): width < 0 || height < 0")
}
2. Check for expressions of the form 'x != c1 || x != c2' or 'x == c1 && x == c2', with c1 and c2 constant expressions. This check caught 16 instances, of which all were bugs. A typical example:
if rf.uri.Scheme != "http" || rf.uri.Scheme != "ftp" {
rf.uri.Scheme = "file"
}
Fixesgolang/go#7622.

This is a common source of bugs, particularly for those new to Go. Running this on a corpus of public code flagged 114 instances.
This check may need to be updated once issue 7363 is resolved.

It was very ugly; a little tweaking helps godoc parse it better.
Also make unsafeptr.go not own the package doc (add a blank line)
and put one more sentence about that check into doc.go.
Fixesgolang/go#7925.

Now we can say
vet -printf=false
to disable the printf test but run all others.
Implemented by creating a tri-state boolean flag that records whether it has been
set explicitly; before this, -printf=false was not distinguishable from not having
mentioned the printf flag at all.
Fixesgolang/go#7422.

How it handles packages vs. directories vs. files was not explained.

These are the simplest possible descriptions of each command.
They may be fleshed out later.

They will be deleted from their current homes once this has landed.
Changes made to import paths to make the code compile, and to find
errchk in the right place in cmd/vet's Makefile.
TODO in a later CL: tidy up vet.
