[ofiwg] coverity replacement

[Jeff Squyres (jsquyres)]

We could certainly try them all and see which one(s) we like.

I have no real opinion -- we've been using Coverity for forever; it's disappointing that it has gone offline with zero word from their owners (even if they told us "no, we're not doing this anymore", that would be better than silence).

I've done some searches for possible replacements, and Code Climate came up as a possible alternative.  Has anyone used this or know of something better?
