Cppcheck analysis limit.

[fjpanag]

Describe the bug
I am getting lots of warnings from cppcheck: cppcheck-normalCheckLevelMaxBranches.

It prompts me to:

Limiting analysis of branches. Use --check-level=exhaustive to analyze all branches.

This is indeed an expected behavior from cppcheck, and indeed enabling --check-level=exhaustive resolves the issue (in stand-alone cppcheck).

However, as far as I can tell, it is not possible to enable this setting through CodeChecker.

Please consider enabling this option (or providing a CodeChecker option to enable the respective cppcheck option).

I spend a considerable amount of time to resolve this, but I didn't succeed. If this is already possible, please consider improving the documentation on this matter.

To Reproduce

Run CodeChecker, with cppcheck enabled, on a file with deep enough branches to trigger the issue.

Expected behaviour

Have a CLI option in CodeChecker to enable exhaustive analysis with cppcheck.

Desktop (please complete the following information)

• OS: Fedora 41
• Browser: Firefox

Additional context

Not sure if it is important, but this is how CodeChecker is invoked in my case:

CodeChecker analyze ./bin/code_checker/compile_commands.json --enable sensitive \
	--disable cppcheck-preprocessorErrorDirective \
	--disable bugprone-branch-clone \
	--disable bugprone-multi-level-implicit-pointer-conversion \
	--disable alpha.unix.PthreadLock \
	--disable cert-err33-c \
	--disable cert-err34-c \
	--disable clang-diagnostic-format-nonliteral \
	--ctu --skip ./test/code_checker/skipfile --output ./bin/code_checker/reports
