libsepol, libsemanage: add a macro to silence static analyzer warnings in tests

Several static analyzers (clang's one, Facebook Infer, etc.) warn about
NULL pointer dereferences after a call to CU_ASSERT_PTR_NOT_NULL_FATAL()
in the test code written using CUnit framework. This is because this
CUnit macro is too complex for them to understand that the pointer
cannot be NULL: it is translated to a call to CU_assertImplementation()
with an argument as TRUE in order to mean that the call is fatal if the
asserted condition failed (cf.
http://cunit.sourceforge.net/doxdocs/group__Framework.html).

A possible solution could consist in replacing the
CU_ASSERT_..._FATAL() calls by assert() ones, as most static analyzers
know about assert(). Nevertheless this seems to go against CUnit's API.

An alternative solution consists in overriding CU_ASSERT_..._FATAL()
macros in order to expand to assert() after a call to the matching
CU_ASSERT_...() non-fatal macro. This appears to work fine and to remove
many false-positive warnings from various static analyzers.

As this substitution should only occur when using static analyzer, put
it under #ifdef __CHECKER__, which is the macro used by sparse when
analyzing the Linux kernel.
