[help] import issue types documentation from website

Summary:
Take all the issue type documentation in the website and add it to infer
itself so it can generate the website (see further diffs).

I mostly generated this diff by writing a script to call from `utop`
with various file lists to do most of the heavy lifting for me and make
sure I didn't forget any issue types: P132800781

+Infer reports these warnings in Objective-C when a boxed primitive type such as

+The branch in the above code will be taken when the pointer `n` is non-`nil`,
+but the programmer might have actually wanted the branch to be taken when the
+integer pointed to by `n` is nonzero (e.g., she may have meant to call an
+accessor like `[n intValue]` instead). Infer will ask the programmer explicitly
+compare `n` to `nil` or call an accessor to clarify her intention.

+This will happen in one of two cases generally:

@@ -0,0 +1,14 @@
+With this check, Infer detects C++ references captured in a block. Doing this is
+almost always wrong. The reason is that C++ references are not managed pointers
+(like ARC pointers) and so the referent is likely to be gone by the time the
+block gets executed. One solution is to do a local copy of the reference and
+pass that to the block. Example:

infer/documentation/issues/DEADLOCK.md

@@ -0,0 +1,60 @@
+This error is currently reported in Java. A deadlock occurs when two distinct
+threads try to acquire two locks in reverse orders. The following code
+illustrates a textbook example. Of course, in real deadlocks, the lock
+acquisitions may be separated by deeply nested call chains.
+
+```java
+  public void lockAThenB() {
+    synchronized(lockA) {
+      synchronized(lockB) {
+       // do something with both resources
+      }

+    synchronized(lockB) {
+      synchronized(lockA) {
+       // do something with both resources
+      }
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+The standard solution to a deadlock is to fix an order of lock acquisition and
+adhere to that order in all cases. Another solution may be to shrink the
+critical sections (i.e., the code executing under lock) to the minimum required.
+
+Old-style containers such as `Vector` are synchronized on the object monitor,
+which means that deadlocks can occur even without explicit synchronisation on
+both threads. For instance:
+
+```java
+  public void lockAThenAddToVector() {
+    synchronized(lockA) {
+      vector.add(object);
+    }
+  }
+
+  public void lockVectorThenA() {
+    synchronized(vector) {
+      synchronized(lockA) {
+       // do something with both resources
+      }
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+Infer has support for detecting these deadlocks too.
+
+To suppress reports of deadlocks in a method `m()` use the
+`@SuppressLint("DEADLOCK")` annotation, as follows:
+
+```java
+  import android.annotation.SuppressLint;

+Infer reports resource leaks in C, Objective-C and Java. In general, resources
+are entities such as files, sockets, connections, etc, that need to be closed
+after being used.
+
+### Resource leak in C
+
+This is an example of a resource leak in C code:
+
+```c
+-(void) resource_leak_bug {
+    FILE *fp;
+    fp=fopen("c:\\test.txt", "r"); // file opened and not closed.
+}
+```
+
+### Resource leak in Java
+
+For the remaining of this section, we will consider examples of resource leaks
+in Java code.
+
+TIP: A common source of bugs is <b>exceptions skipping past close()
+statements</b>. That is the first thing to look for if INFER reports a potential
+resource leak.
+
+### Basics and Standard Idiom
+
+Some objects in Java, the <i>resources</i>, are supposed to be closed when you
+stop using them, and failure to close is a <i>resource leak</i>. Resources
+include input streams, output streams, readers, writers, sockets, http
+connections, cursors, and json parsers.
+
+The standard idiom is
+
+```java
+  // Standard idiom
+  Allocate resource
+  try {
+    do some stuff
+  } finally {
+    close resource
+  }
+```
+
+or more for example,
+
+```java
+  //  Standard Idiom
+  public static void foo () throws IOException{
+    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("whatever.txt"));
+    try {
+      fos.write(7);
+    } finally {
+      fos.close();
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+and you should use the standard idiom for the most part, when you don't want to
+return the resource to the surrounding context.
+
+Sometimes people just leave out close(), and that is a bug, but more typically
+exceptional paths are the root of the problem, as in
+
+```java
+  // leak because of exception
+  public static void foo () throws IOException {
+    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("whatever.txt"));
+    fos.write(7);   //DOH! What if exception?
+    fos.close();
+  }
+```
+
+where an exception in fos.write will cause execution to skip past the close()
+statement.
+
+#### Multiple Resources Bugs
+
+We can deal with multiple resources correctly and simply just by nesting the
+standard idiom.
+
+```java
+  // Two Resources nested
+  public static void foo() throws IOException {
+    FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File("whatever.txt"));
+    try {
+      FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("everwhat.txt"));
+      try {
+        fos.write(fis.read());
+      } finally {
+        fos.close();
+      }
+    } finally {
+      fis.close();
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+Bugs often occur when using multiple resources in other ways because of
+exceptions in close() methods. For example,
+
+```java
+  // Classic Two Resources Bug
+  public static void foo() throws IOException {
+    FileInputStream fis = null;
+    FileOutputStream fos = null;
+    try {
+      fis = new FileInputStream(new File("whatever.txt"));
+      fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("everwhat.txt"));
+      fos.write(fis.read());
+    } finally {
+      if (fis!=null)  fis.close();
+      if (fos!=null) fos.close();
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+Here, if there is an exception in the call to fis.close() execution will skip
+past fos.close(); a leak.
+
+Another way, besides the standard idiom, to deal with this problem is to swallow
+exceptions.
+
+```java
+  // Two Resources Fix 1
+  public static void foo() throws IOException {
+    FileInputStream fis = null;
+    FileOutputStream fos = null;
+    try {
+      fis = new FileInputStream(new File("whatever.txt"));
+      fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("everwhat.txt"));
+      fos.write(fis.read());
+    } finally {
+      try {
+        if (fis!=null) fis.close();
+      } catch (Exception e) {};  // Exception swallowing
+      if (fos!=null) fos.close();
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+You can also swallow the exception on the output stream. Some people prefer not
+to swallow output stream exceptions, and also flush before closing.
+http://code.google.com/p/guava-libraries/issues/detail?id=1118
+
+Notice that the nested standard idiom does not need the checks for null, which
+are in there in this case to protect against the case when one of the
+allocations throws an exception, in which case one would get a
+NullPointerException.
+
+### Nested_Allocations
+
+When a resource allocation is included as an argument to a constructor, if the
+constructor fails it can leave an an unreachable resource that no one can close.
+
+For example gzipOutputStream = new GZIPOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(out));
+is bad in case the outer constructor, GZIPOutputStream, throws an exception. In
+that case, no one will have a hold of the FileOutputStream and so no one will be
+able to close it.
+
+In such a case you need to move the allocation the FileOutputStream out of the
+nested position and name it, so you are able to close if anything goes wrong
+during execution of the GZIPOutputStream constructor.
+
+Here are resources that can throw exceptions i their constructor(s).
+
+- ObjectInputStream , ObjectOutputStream, PipedInputStream, PipedOutputStream,
+  PipedReader, PipedWriter, JarInputStream, JarOutputStream, GZIPInputStream,
+  GZIPOutputStream , ZipFile all throw IOException
+- PrintStream throws UnsupportedEncodingException
+
+The constructors for FileInputStream, FileOutputStream and RandomAccessFile
+throw FileNotFoundException, but these cases are not problematic in the sense
+that their arguments are not resources and so they do not cause the nested
+resource leak.
+
+### Allocation of JSonParser and Cursor resources
+
+Some resources are created inside libraries instead of by "new".
+
+Cursor is an interface, the actual resources are something like SQLiteCursor.
+So, every time you call a function that returns a Cursor object, there is an
+allocation.
+
+For instance, in the functions from SQLiteDatabase query(…) and rawQuery(…)
+allocate a cursor resource. For SQLiteQueryBuilder, ContentProviderClient,
+ContentResolver. MediaStore and DownloadManager it is only query(…) Cursor
+objects cursor created by these functions need to be closed (i.e.,
+cursor.close()).
+
+Similarly, JsonParser is an abstract class, and create a resource in functions
+from the class JsonFactory createParser(byte[] data) createParser(byte[] data,
+int offset, int len) createParser(String content) createParser(URL url)
+createParser(File f) JsonParser objects js created by these functions need to be
+closed (jp.close()). On the other hand . JasonParsers gotten from
+createParser(InputStream in) and createParser(Reader r) give you JsonParsers
+that don’t need to be closed. This is because they receive the resource from
+somewhere that will maintain the responsibility to close it.
+
+### Escaping resources and exceptions
+
+Sometimes you want to return a resource to the outside, in which case you should
+not close it, but you still need to be careful of exceptions in case control
+skips past the return leaving no one to close. Here is a simple example of a
+positive use of escaping resources.
+
+```java
+  // An escaping resource, shouldn't close
+  public BugReportAttachment createAttachment(File reportDirectory, String fileName)
+      throws FileNotFoundException {
+    File file = new File(reportDirectory, fileName);
+    OutputStream stream = new FileOutputStream(file);
+    return new BugReportAttachment(Uri.fromFile(file), stream);
+  }
+```
+
+In this case it is intended that an object that wraps `stream` is passed to the
+caller of `createAttachment`. You should certainly not close stream here,
+because it is being passed to the outside.
+
+But for escaping resources like this you still need to be careful of exceptions.
+For example, in
+
+```java
+  // An escaping resource, and a leak
+  public BugReportAttachment createAttachment(File reportDirectory, String fileName)
+      throws FileNotFoundException {
+    File file = new File(reportDirectory, fileName);
+    OutputStream stream = new FileOutputStream(file);
+    stream.write(7);
+    return new BugReportAttachment(Uri.fromFile(file), stream);
+  }
+```
+
+if stream.write(7) throws an exception, then no one will have a hold of stream,
+and no one will be able to close it; a leak.
+
+### Java 7's try-with-resources
+
+**(For use with Java 7 only)**
+
+Clearly, accounting for the ramifications of all the exceptional cases is
+complicated, and there is a better way in Java 7.
+
+```java
+  // Two Resources Fix 2; via try-with-resources
+  public static void foo() throws IOException {
+    try (
+      FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(new File("whatever.txt"));
+      FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("everwhat.txt"))
+    ) {
+      fos.write(fis.read());
+    }
+  }
+```
+
+All the complicated exceptional cases above are (apparently) covered by this
+construct, and the result is much simpler.
+
+So, if you are trying to fix a potential leak in code with multiples resources
+you can go ahead and try to understand whether the potential leak is real. Or,
+if the code is complex and it is hard to figure out, it would be perfectly
+legitimate to simply convert the code over to try-with-resources if you have
+access to Java 7, so as to save yourself some brain-cycles. You will also end up
+with cleaner code.
+
+If try-with-resources is so great you should <i>always</i> use it. But you
+shouldn't… Try-with-resources gives resources static scoping, and works via a
+stack discipline. Sometimes, you want a resource to persist beyond scope, as in
+the escaping example above. In an escaping example maybe you could refactor lots
+of code so that try-with-resources applies, and maybe you cannot in a sensible
+way. This just illustrates that, though you might hear people say that
+try-with-resources "solves" the resource problem, it does not. It is very
+useful, but you cannot use it blindly when you see a resource-allocation site.

+This error is reported in Java, and specifically on Android. These reports are
+triggered when a method that runs on the UI thread may block, thus potentially
+leading to an Application Not Responding error.
+
+Infer considers a method as running on the UI thread whenever:
+
+- The method, one of its overrides, its class, or an ancestral class, is
+  annotated with `@UiThread`.
+- The method, or one of its overrides is annotated with `@OnEvent`, `@OnClick`,
+  etc.
+- The method or its callees call a `Litho.ThreadUtils` method such as
+  `assertMainThread`.
+
+The issue is reported when a method deemed to run on the UI thread
+
+- Makes a method call which may block.
+- Takes a lock, and another thread takes the same lock, and before releasing it,
+  makes a call that may block.
+
+Calls that may block are considered:
+
+- Certain I/O calls.
+- Two way `Binder.transact` calls.
+- Certain OS calls.
+- `Future` or `AsyncTask` calls to `get` without timeouts, or with too large
+  timeouts.
+
+To suppress starvation reports in a method `m()` use the
+`@SuppressLint("STARVATION")` annotation, as follows:
+
+```java
+  import android.annotation.SuppressLint;
+
+  @SuppressLint("STARVATION")
+  public void m() {
+  ...
+  }
+```
+
+To signal to Infer that a method does not perform any blocking calls, despite
+appearences, you can use the `@NonBlocking` annotation:
+
+```java
+  import com.facebook.infer.annotation.NonBlocking;
+
+  @NonBlocking
+  public void m() {
+  ...
+  }
+```
+
+This instructs Infer to filter out any potentially blocking calls in `m()`
+(also, transitively), and thus any other method can expect no starvation reports
+due to a call to `m()`. You will need to set up your class path appropriately to
+include the JAR files in `infer/annotations` for this annotation to work.

+This warning indicates a potential data race in Java. The analyser is called
+RacerD and this section gives brief but a mostly complete description of its
+features. See the [RacerD page](/docs/racerd) for more in-depth information and
+examples.
+
+NB this warning **is not related to @GuardedBy** and not issued by the same
+analysis.
+
+### Thread-safety: What is a data race
+
+Here a data race is a pair of accesses to the same member field such that:
+
+- at least one is a write, and,
+- at least one occurs without any lock synchronization, and,
+- the two accesses occur on threads (if known) which can run in parallel.
+
+### Thread-safety: Potential fixes
+
+- Synchronizing the accesses (using the `synchronized` keyword, thread-exclusion
+  such as atomic objects, `volatile` etc).
+- Making an offending method private -- this will exclude it from being checked
+  at the top level, though it will be checked if called by a public method which
+  may itself, e.g., hold a lock when calling it.
+- Putting the two accesses on the same thread, e.g., by using `@MainThread` or
+  `@ThreadConfined`.
+
+### Thread-safety: Conditions checked before reporting
+
+The class and method are not marked `@ThreadSafe(enableChecks = false)`, and,
+
+- The method is declared `synchronized`, or employs (non-transitively) locking,
+  or,
+- The class is not marked `@NotThreadSafe`, and,
+  - The class/method is marked `@ThreadSafe,` or one of the configured synonyms
+    in `.inferconfig`, or,
+  - A parent class, or an override method are marked with the above annotations.
+
+NB currently RacerD **does not take into account `@GuardedBy`**.
+
+### Thread-safety: Thread annotations recognized by RacerD
+
+These class and method annotations imply the method is on the main thread:
+`@MainThread`, `@UiThread`
+
+These method annotations imply the method is on the main thread: `@OnBind`,
+`@OnEvent`, `@OnMount`, `@OnUnbind`, `@OnUnmount`
+
+Both classes of annotations work through the inheritance tree (i.e. if a parent
+class or method is marked with one of these annotations, so is the child class /
+method override).
+
+In addition to these, RacerD recognizes many lifecycle methods as necessarily
+running on the main thread, eg `Fragment.onCreate` etc.
+
+Finally, the thread status of being on the main thread propagates backwards
+through the call graph (ie if `foo` calls `bar` and `bar` is marked `@UiThtread`
+then `foo` is automatically considered on the main thread too). Calling
+`assertMainThread`, `assertOnUiThread`, `checkOnMainThread` has the same effect.
+
+NB RacerD currently **does not recognize `@WorkerThread`, `@BinderThread` or
+`@AnyThread`**.
+
+### Thread-safety: Other annotations and what they do
+
+These annotations can be found at `com.facebook.infer.annotation.*`.
+
+- `@Functional` This is a method annotation indicating the method always returns
+  the same value. When a method `foo` is annotated `@Functional`, RacerD will
+  ignore any writes of the return value of `foo`. For example, in
+  `this.x = foo()`, the write to `this.x` is ignored. The reasoning is that if
+  the method returns the same value whenever it's called, any data race on
+  `this.x` is benign, if that is the only write.
+
+- `@ThreadConfined` This is a class/method/field annotation which takes a single
+  parameter which can be `UI`, `ANY` or a user chosen string. It indicates to
+  RacerD a thread identifier for the class/method/field. Thus,
+  `@ThreadConfined(UI)` is equivalent to `@UiThread`, and `@ThreadConfined(ANY)`
+  is equivalent to not having the annotation at all, for classes and methods.
+  When this annotation is applied to a field it instructs Infer to assume
+  (without checking) that all accesses to that field are made on the same thread
+  (and can, therefore, not race by definition). The intention is that RacerD
+  uses that to detect exclusion between accesses occurring on the same thread.
+  However, only the UI thread is supported at this time, and any user provided
+  value is considered equal to `UI`.
+
+- `@VisibleForTesting` A method annotation making Infer consider the method as
+  effectively `private`. This means it will not be checked for races against
+  other non-private methods of the class, but only if called by one.
+
+- `@ReturnsOwnership` A method annotation indicating that the method returns a
+  freshly owned object. Accesses to the returned value will not be considered
+  for data races, as the object is in-effect unique and not accessible yet from
+  other threads. The main utility of this annotation is in interfaces, where
+  Infer cannot look up the implementation and decide for itself.
