Pull request description:
The linters are thoroughly tested under Ubuntu which is what we use in Travis. When reading #14041 I understood that some developers were experiencing problems when running the linters on their local machines.
Assuming these local machines were running macOS I installed a fresh macOS VM, followed the instructions in `build-osx.md` and ran the linters.
This PR contains the changes needed to make `lint-all.sh` run as expected.
Ideally the linters would continuously run also under a Travis macOS environment to make sure we catch these kind of issues before merge.

fa3c910bfeab00703c947c5200a64c21225b50ef test: Move linters to test/lint, add readme (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
This moves the checks and linters from `devtools` to a subfolder in `test`. (Motivated by my opinion that the dev tools are mostly for generating code and updating the repo whereas the linters are read-only checks.)
Also, adds a readme to clarify that checks and linters are only meant to prevent bugs and user facing issues, not merely stylistic preference or inconsistencies. (This is motivated by the diversity in developers and work flows as well as existing code styles. It would be too disruptive to change all existing code to a single style or too burdensome to force all developers to adhere to a single style. Also note that our style guide is changing, so locking in at the wrong style "too early" would only waste resources.)
