Because this way we can access the checker name specified in `Checkers.td` via the function `Mgr.getCurrentCheckerName();`.

When the checker class corresponds to just one checker defined in `Checkers.td` we can use the alternative constructor of `BugType` that takes the checker object (`this`) as a first argument and then queries the name from the checker object (which can save a _single_ name automatically).

When a single class implements multiple checkers, we need to explicitly pass the right name to the `BugType` constructor, and so we need to either (1) postpone the construction of the `BugType` to a point after the registration or (2) duplicate the checker name between `Checkers.td` and the source file.

AFAIK we always choose option (1), but I didn't check this systematically.
