Improve Coverity Scan Integration: GSOC project details

[suyash singh]

Okay so I found this
https://www.synopsys.com/content/dam/synopsys/sig-assets/datasheets/coverity-misra-standards-ds-ul.pdf
and
https://github.com/ARM-software/tf-issues/issues/549
Which leads me to believe coverity provides a MISRA scanner.

Is it practical to write a program to check some of the MISRA C rules?
