patch removes a function

I have simply split the functionality of process_file_data into two parts: the checker is now created directly in the CppStyleTestBase unit test, while setting the module's global _unit_test_config is done from the constructor of CppChecker.
Although currently it causes no problem, I think that setting the global from the constructor is not a nice nor safe solution. What could be done are:
- move the global into the CppChecker class and propagate its value (through 3 functions) to the only place it is used (the 3 functions are used nowhere else), or
- move all the functions (or almost all) into the CppChecker class, or
- leave it as it is now.
By the way, to set up some specific environments, the cpp_unittest uses both globals and parameter propagation. Is one of them preferred?
