We already had "cpluspluscheck", which served the dual purposes of verifying that headers compile standalone and that they compile as C++. However, C++ compilers don't have the exact same set of error conditions as C compilers, so this doesn't really prove that a header will compile standalone as C. Hence, add a second script that's largely similar but runs the C compiler not C++. Also add a bit more documentation than the none-at-all we had before.
