Important note regarding checkstyle in automation: to get the specific
checkstyle failures, you have to click the failing test, click "Job
Details", "Inspect task", and select the checkstyle artifact (e.g. [0]).
Then you need to scroll through a large xml file to find your errors.

Instead, if you see failures on try, I think it's easier to just run it
locally (`./mach gradle checkstyle`) – the errors should print to stdout.

For an example failure on treeherder, see [1].
