Summary:
The rule from the GNU style states:
"We find it easier to read a program when it has spaces before the open-parentheses and after the commas."

http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#index-spaces-before-open_002dparen

This patch makes clang-format adds an option to put spaces before almost all open parentheses, except the cases, where different behavior is dictated by the style rules or language syntax:
  * preprocessor:
    ** function-like macro definitions can't have a space between the macro name and the parenthesis;
    ** `#if defined(...)` can have a space, but it seems, that it's more frequently used without a space in GCC, for example;
  * never add spaces after unary operators;
  * adding spaces between two opening parentheses is controlled with the `SpacesInParentheses` option;
  * never add spaces between `[` and `(` (there's no option yet).

//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

Welcome to Clang.  This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages
(C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM
compiler infrastructure project.

Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things
beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of
different source level tools.  One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.

If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read
the relevant web sites.  Here are some pointers:
