jQAssistant CodeClimate Report Plugin

This is the CodeClimate Report Plugin of jQAssistant.

It allows to generate JSON files in the CodeClimate format which can be used to display them e.g. in GitLab merge requests.

For more information on jQAssistant see https://jqassistant.org.

Note	Despite linking of source locations is implemented by this plugin the generated links are not valid yet. This requires a change in jQAssistant which is scheduled for one of the next releases.
