##### Exceptions
A local variable that is returned by value and is cheaper to move than copy should not be declared `const`
because it can force an unnecessary copy.
std::vector<int> f(int i)
{
std::vector<int> v{ i, i, i }; // const not needed
return v;
}
Function parameters passed by value are rarely mutated, but also rarely declared `const`.
To avoid confusion and lots of false positives, don't enforce this rule for function parameters.
void f(const char* const p); // pedantic
void g(const int i) { ... } // pedantic
Note that a function parameter is a local variable so changes to it are local.
##### Enforcement
* Flag non-`const` variables that are not modified (except for parameters to avoid many false positives)

A test should identify whether headers referenced via `""` could be referenced with `<>`.
### <a name="Rs-portable-header-id"></a>SF.13: Use portable header identifiers in `#include` statements
##### Reason
The [standard](http://eel.is/c++draft/cpp.include) does not specify how compilers uniquely locate headers from an identifier in an `#include` directive, nor does it specify what constitutes uniqueness. For example, whether the implementation considers the identifiers to be case-sensitive, or whether the identifiers are file system paths to a header file, and if so, how a hierarchical file system path is delimited.
To maximize the portability of `#include` directives across compilers, guidance is to:
* use case-sensitivity for the header identifier, matching how the header is defined by the standard, specification, implementation, or file that provides the header.
* when the header identifier is a hierarchical file path, use forward-slash `/` to delimit path components as this is the most widely-accepted path-delimiting character.
##### Example
// good examples
#include <vector>
#include <string>
#include "util/util.h"
// bad examples
#include <VECTOR> // bad: the standard library defines a header identified as <vector>, not <VECTOR>
#include <String> // bad: the standard library defines a header identified as <string>, not <String>
#include "Util/Util.H" // bad: the header file exists on the file system as "util/util.h"
#include "util\util.h" // bad: may not work if the implementation interprets `\u` as an escape sequence, or where '\' is not a valid path separator
##### Enforcement
It is only possible to enforce on implementations where header identifiers are case-sensitive and which only support `/` as a file path delimiter.
