Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/2] Makefile: add check-headers target

From: David Aguilar <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 6 Sep 2014 17:30:20 -0700

This allows us to ensure that each header can be included
individually without needing to include other headers first.

Signed-off-by: David Aguilar <[email-masked]>

Changes since v1:
We now include xdiff, ewah, and vcs-svn headers.
