Summary:
From the user perspective, the current behavior is confusing.
The users intutitively expect the inner class to inherit Nullsafe mode
from the outer one.
Having a class that is Nullsafe but the inner is not is hence dangerous
and misleading.
For the sake of completeness and to support gradual strictification, we
allow the nested class to improse additional strictness. Particularly,
the inner class can be Nullsafe but the outer can be not.
A follow up to this diff will include warnings telling about redundant and wrong usages of nested annotations.

Summary:
Replace horrible hack with ok hack.
The main difficulty in implementing the disjunctive domain is to avoid
the quadratic time complexity of executing the same disjuncts over and
over again when going around loops:
First time around a loop, assuming for example a single disjunct `d`:
```
[d]
loop body
[d1' \/ d2']
```
Second time around the same loop: the new pre will be the join of the
posts of predecessor nodes, so `old_pre \/ post(loop,old_pre)`, i.e.
`d \/ d1' \/ d2'`. Now we need to execute `loop body` again
*without running the symbolic execution of `d` again* (and the time after
that we'll want to not execute `d`, `d1'`, or `d2'`).
Horrible hack (before): Disjuncts have a boolean "visited" attached
that does its best to keep track of whether a given disjunct is old or
new. When executing a single *instruction* look at the flag and skip the
state if it's old. Of course we have no way to know for sure so it turns
out it was often wrongly re-executing old disjuncts. This was also
producing the wrong results over even simple loops: only the last
iteration would make it outside the loop for some reason. Overall, the
semantics were pretty untractable and shady at best.
New hack (this diff): only run instructions of a given *node* on
disjuncts that are not physically equal to the "pre" ones already in the
invariant map for the current node.
This gives the correct result over simple loops and a nice performance
improvement in general (probably the old heuristic was hitting the
quadratic bad case more often).

Summary:
We translated the expression `CXXStdInitializerListExpr` naively in D3058895 as a call to
a skip function, with the hope that it would be translated better in the future. However, the naive means that we lose access to the initialized list/array because we are simply skipping it. So, even if we want to model the initializer properly, we have to deal with the skip specially.
This diff tries to solve this problem by removing the skip call whenever
possible. Instead, we translate the underlying array/list as a Load, so
that when it is passed to the constructor, we can pick it up.
For the following initialization:
``` std::vector<int*> vec = {nullptr};
```
Before, we translated it as
```
*&0$?%__sil_tmpSIL_materialize_temp__n$7[0]:int* const =null
n$8=_fun___infer_skip_function(&0$?%__sil_tmpSIL_materialize_temp__n$7:int* const [1*8] const )
n$9=_fun_std::vector<int*,std::allocator<int*>>::vector(&vec:std::vector<int*,std::allocator<int*>>*,n$8:std::initializer_list<int*>)
```
However, this means, `n$8` would be result of something skipped which we can't reason about. Instead, we just pass the underlying initialized array now, so we get the following translation:
```
*&0$?%__sil_tmpSIL_materialize_temp__n$7[0]:int* const =null
n$8=*&0$?%__sil_tmpSIL_materialize_temp__n$7:int* const [1*8] const

Summary:
When encountering a constant, pulse creates an abstract value (a
variable) to represent it, and remembers that it's equal to it. The
problem is that pulse doesn't yet know how to deal with the fact that
some variables are going to be equal to each other.
This hacks around this issue in the case of constants, within the same
procedure, by remembering which constants have been assigned to which
place-holder variables, and serving those variables again when the same
constant is translated again.
Limitation: this doesn't work across procedure calls as the "constant
maps" are not saved in summaries.
Something to look out for: we don't want to make `if (p == NULL)` create
a path where `p` is invalid (we only make null invalid when we see an
assignment from 0, i.e. `p = NULL;`).

There are two types of anonymous classes (not user defined classes):

- lambda classes (corresponding to lambda expressions). Experimentally,
they all have form `$Lambda$_<int>_<int>`, but the code just uses
`$Lambda$` as a heuristic so it is potentially more robust.
# Problem this diff solves
When generate meta-issues for nullsafe, we are interested only in
user-defined classes, so we merge all nested anonymous stuff to
corresponding user-defined classes and hence aggregate the issues.
Without this diff, for each lambda in the code, we would report this as
a separate meta-issue, which would both screw up stats and be confusing

Summary:
This diff revises how to handle the unknown location in inferbo in two ways:
* stop appending field to the `Unknown` location, e.g. `Unknown.x.a` is evaluated to `Unknown`
* redesign the abstract of multiple locations, like `Bottom` < `Unknown` < `Known` locations
I am doing them in one diff since applying only one of them showed bad results.
Background: `Unknown` was adopted for abstracting all unknown concrete locations, so we could avoid missing semantics of assignments to unknown locations. We tried to keep soundness. However, it brought some other problems related to precision and performance.
1. Sometimes especially when Inferbo failed to reason precise pointer values, `Unknown` may point to many other abstract locations.
2. At that time, value assignments to `*Unknown` makes the situation worse: many abstract locations are updated with imprecise values.
This problem harmed not only its precision, but also its performance since it introduced more location entries in the abstract memory.

Summary:
As soon as pulse detects an error, it completely stops the analysis and loses the state where the error occurred. This makes it difficult to debug and understand the state the program failed. Moreover, other analyses that might build on pulse (e.g. impurity), cannot access the error state.
This diff aims to restore and display the state at the time of the error in `PulseExecutionState` along with the diagnostic by extending it as follows:
```
type exec_state =
| represents the state at the program point that caused an error *)
```
As a result, since we don't immediately stop the analysis as soon as we find an error, we detect both errors in conditional branches simultaneously (see test result changes for examples).
NOTE: We need to extend `PulseOperations.access_result` to keep track of the failed state as follows:
```
type 'a access_result = ('a, Diagnostic.t * t [denoting the exit state] ) result

Summary:
This diff lifts the `PulseAbductiveDomain.t` in `PulseExecutionState` by tracking whether the program continues the analysis normally or exits unusually (e.g. by calling `exit` or `throw`):
```
type exec_state =
| ContinueProgram of PulseAbductiveDomain.t (** represents the state at the program point *)
| ExitProgram of PulseAbductiveDomain.t
(** represents the state originating at exit/divergence. *)
```
Now, Pulse's actual domain is tracked by `PulseExecutionState` and as soon as we try to analyze an instruction at `ExitProgram`, we simply return its state.
The aim is to recover the state at the time of the exit, rather than simply ignoring them (i.e. returning empty disjuncts). This allows us to get rid of some FNs that we were not able to detect before. Moreover, it also allows the impurity analysis to be more precise since we will know how the state changed up to exit.
TODO:
- Impurity analysis needs to be improved to consider functions that simply exit as impure.
- The next goal is to handle error state similarly so that when pulse finds an error, we recover the state at the error location (and potentially continue to analyze?).
Disclaimer: currently, we handle throw statements like exit (as was the case before). However, this is not correct. Ideally, control flow from throw nodes follows catch nodes rather than exiting the program entirely.

The attribute `[no_return]` signifies that a function doesn't return. Previously, pre-analysis had cut the links to successor nodes of such no-return function nodes. This was intended to help with suppressing reporting on unreachable paths for some analyses. However, this results in having these nodes as dangling, with no connection to exit nodes.
This diff additionally shortcuts these no-return function nodes to exit node. This would allow us to enhance inter-procedural analyses like pulse to kepp track of paths that do not return since we will be keeping their connections at exit node rather than completely cutting them of as before. It would also allow us to assume that all paths start at the one start node and end at the one exit node (at least syntactically in the CFG).
