check-webkit-style: add checker for protect() in variable initialization
<https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306787>
<rdar://problem/169460205>
Reviewed by Chris Dumez.
Add a new check to warn about using `protect()` function when
assigning to RefPtr/Ref variables, which violates SaferCPP guidelines.
The check uses the existing `safercpp/protected_getter_for_init` category
and complements the existing (deprecated) `protectedFoo()` checks as
WebKit transitions from `protectedFoo()` getters to using `protect()` at
call sites.
