Summary:
Before, the liveness pre-analysis would place extra instructions in the
CFG for either:
1. marking an `Ident.t` as dead, or
2. marking a `Pvar.t` as `= 0`
But we have no way of marking pvars dead without setting them to 0. This
is bad because setting pvars to 0 is not possible everywhere they are
dead. Indeed, we only do it when we haven't seen their address being
taken anyway. This prevents the following situation, recorded in our tests:
```
int address_taken() {
int** x;
int* y;
int i = 7;
y = &i;
x = &y;
// if we don't reason about taken addresses while adding nullify instructions,
// we'll add
// `nullify(y)` here and report a false NPE on the next line
return **x;
}
```
So we want to mark pvars as dead without nullifying them. This diff
extends the `Remove_temps` SIL instruction to accept pvars as well, and
so renames it to `ExitScope`.

Summary:
Useful to understand the changes in the pre-analysis, or to inspect the
CFG that checkers actually get.
This means that the pre-analysis always runs when we output the dotty,
but I don't really see a reason why not. In fact, we could probably
*always* store the CFGs as pre-analysed.

Summary:
Previously, the type of `trans_result` contained a list of SIL expressions.
However, most of the time we expect to get exactly one, and getting a different
number is a soft(!) error, usually returning `-1`.
This splits `trans_result` into `control`, which contains the information
needed for temporary computation (hence when we don't necessarily know the
return value yet), and a new version of `trans_result` that includes `control`,
the previous `exps` list but replaced by a single `return` expression instead,
and a couple other values that made sense to move out of `control`. This allows
some flexibility in the frontend compared to enforcing exactly one return
expression always: if they are not known yet we stick to `control` instead (see
eg `compute_controls_to_parent`).
This creates more garbage temporary identifiers, however they do not show up in
the final cfg. Instead, we see that temporary IDs are now often not
consecutive...
The most painful complication is in the treatment of `DeclRefExpr`, which was
actually returning *two* expressions: the method name and the `this` object.
Now the method name is a separate (optional) field in `trans_result`.

Summary:
When looking at large CFGs, at least in `xdot`, it's often difficult to find
the procedure you're looking for. Sorting the proc names puts them in
alphabetical order, which makes searching one procedure easier.

Summary:
The previous domain for SIOF was duplicating some work with the generic Trace
domain, and basically was a bit confused and confusing. A sink was a set of
global accesses, and a state contains a set of sinks. Then the checker has to
needlessly jump through hoops to normalize this set of sets of accesses into a
set of accesses.
The new domain has one sink = one access, as suggested by sblackshear. This simplifies
a few things, and makes the dedup logic much easier: just grab the first report
of the list of reports for a function.
We only report on the fake procedures generated to initialise a global, and the
filtering means that we keep only one report per global.

Summary: The prune nodes where translated as `prune (expr = false)` and `prune ( expr != false)`. This case is a bit tricky to deconstruct in HIL. This diff translates the prune instructions as just `prune !expr` for the true branch and `prune expr` for the false branch.
