Summary: For performance critical sections of the code, this checker detects memory allocations or calls to methods annotated as expensive. However, such cases of memory allocations or expensive calls are acceptable is occuring in rare cases. This diff adds supports for the "unlikely" branch prediction method and does not track expensive calls in unlikely branches.

Add to the code to detect violation of the `NoAllocation` annotation. This diff adds the code to detect such issue based on the code of the `PerformanceCritical` checker. In the next diff, I will refine the list of acceptable allocations, like new exceptions, etc, and add the list of corresponding tests.

Before this diff, the checker was collecting in a bottom-up fashion all possible call trees from `PerforamanceCritical`-annotated methods to `Expensive`-annotated ones. With this diff, we just collect the names of the direct transitively expensive callees and compute the expensive call stacks when reporting errors only.

Is seems that automatically inheriting annotations like `PerformanceCritical` or `NoAllocation` is the right thing to do in general. Otherwise, we need to enforce sub-typing rules which in the best case just adds a little bit of documentation, but could miss important issues when the code is not fully annotated. I am simplifying this part to avoid adding boilerplate code for the `NoAllocation` case.

The contravariant subtyping rule for the PerformanceCritial annotation was meant to document the code but can be very too verbose on exisiting project. It is also not necessary as we can get this annotation from the supertypes. I am disabling it for now, but keep the code in case we want to revive it at some point in the future.

Summary: public
This is an initial version of the Expensive checker which only report violations on direct calls. The main objective is to setup all the files for this new checker.
The next steps are:
1) run the checker in interprocedural mode
2) Save in the summary of a method foo() the annotation attribute Expensive if a direct callee of foo is annotated with Expensive
3) Check that Expensive is enforced by subtyping, i.e. check that non-expensive method cannot be overwritten by a method annotated with Expensive
