Subject: [PATCH V6] checkpatch: add command-line option for TAB size

Linux kernel coding style requires a size of 8 characters for
both TAB and indentation, and such value is embedded as magic
value allover the checkpatch script.
This makes hard to reuse the script by other projects with
different requirements in their coding style (e.g. OpenOCD [1]
requires TAB size of 4 characters [2]).

Replace the magic value 8 with a variable.

Add a command-line option "--tab-size" to let the user select a
TAB size value other than 8.
