This revision is now accepted and ready to land.

I agree that the test/clang-tidy directory has become hard to navigate. Splitting tests for checks and for infrastructure seems reasonable to me. I personally don't care about specific directory names and file moves/renames are also not a concern, since git is rather good at handling those. I personally strongly prefer long-term improvements over desire to minimize churn.

My only concern is that the add_new_check.py script is updated to put new tests to the right place - totally fine for a follow up though.

One more thing is that having all checker tests in one directory is still not particularly nice, but the alternatives I thought of are not clearly superior:
0. test/clang-tidy/modernize-blah-blah.cpp - current state

1. test/clang-tidy/checkers/modernize-blah-blah.cpp - this patch
2. test/clang-tidy/checkers/modernize/blah-blah.cpp - test names don't have the check name substring, which makes them slightly harder to find with eyes
3. test/clang-tidy/checkers/modernize/modernize-blah-blah.cpp - a bit tautological, even longer full file names

I'm fine with any of 1-3, since there's no clear winner among the three options.
