[PATCH 37/41] [automated] Use DECLARE_*CHECKER* when possible (--force mode)

[Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com>]

Separate run of the script using the --force flag, for the cases
where the typedef wasn't found in the same header.

Generated using:

 $ ./scripts/codeconverter/converter.py --force -i \
   --pattern=TypeCheckMacro $(git grep -l '' -- '*.[ch]')

This is being done as a separate commit because it has more
potential to break the build because typedefs might be really
unavailable.
