This check flags usages of ``std::numeric_limits<T>::{min,max}()`` for
unspecialized types. It is dangerous because returns T(), which might is
rarely
minimum or maximum for this type.
Consider scenario:
1. Have `typedef long long BigInt` in source code
2. Use `std::numeric_limits<BigInt>::min()`
3. Replace the `BigInt` typedef with class implementing BigIntegers
4. Compile silently your code and find it few years later that you have
