Then detect #include blocks (not necessarily the same way as its done in the IncludeOrderCheck. Maybe use the presense of any non-comment tokens between #includes as a boundary of blocks), and detect duplicate includes in each block.

Thanks, I'll try that.  The next question that brings to mind is how do I distinguish between headers that I own and headers used from third party libraries?

For instance, suppose I run a check on a clang refactoring tool and it uses `isInSystemHeader` and starts flagging issues in the clang tooling library headers.

The `compile_commands.json` doesn't contain any information about headers in my project, only translation units in my build, so it doesn't know whether or not included headers belong to me or third-party libraries.
