Summary: It is now possible to push the thread status into each critical pair. This leads to higher precision, because when code branches on whether it is on the UI thread, the final abstract state of the procedure will be `AnyThread`, but pairs created in the UI thread branch should know that their status is `UIThread`, not `AnyThread`.

Summary:
Previously, we considered a function which modifies its parameters to be impure even though it might not be modifying the underlying value. This resulted in FPs like the following program in Java:
```
void fresh_pure(int[] a) {
a = new int[1];
}
```
Similarly, in C++, we considered the following program as impure because it was writing to `s`:
```
Simple* reassign_pure(Simple* s) {
s = new Simple{2};
return s;
}
```
This diff fixes that issue by starting the check for address equivalnce in pre-post not directly from the addresses of the stack variables, but from the addresses pointed to by these stack variables. That means, we only consider things to be impure if the actual values pointed by the parameters change.

Summary:
This commit adds truncation, sign extension and zero extension to LLVM
and the Convert instruction to LLAIR.
The LLVM instructions use HOL's build-in word/int and word/num
conversions. Sanity-checking theorems prove that zero-extending leaves
the value of the word unchanged when considered as an unsigned value,
and that sign-extending leaves the value unchanged when considered as a
signed value.
The llair semantics for Convert uses the truncate_2comp function which
converts an integer to another integer as though they were represented
in 2's complement. e.g. truncate_2comp 255 16 = 255, truncate_2comp
255 8 = -1, truncate_2comp -3 2 = 1

Summary:
This required some minor tweaks to how the semantics encode values into
and out of byte lists. The remaining problems have to do with how LLVM
globals are translated into llair. At the moment, llair semantic's state
keeps a mapping for globals to their addresses, following the LLVM
semantics. However, it is not used because the translation (following
the code in frontend.ml) translates LLVM globals into llair locals,
which the llair semantics isn't set up to handle.

Summary:
This is the first take on strict mode semantics.
The main invariant of strict mode is the following:
If the function passes `NullsafeStrict` check and its return value is
NOT annotated as Nullable, then the function does not indeed return
nulls, subject to unsoundness issues (which should either be fixed, or
should rarely happen in practice).
This invariant helps the caller in two ways:
1. Dangerous usages of non strict functions are visible, so the caller is enforced to check them (via assertions or conditions), or strictify them.
2. When the function is strict, the caller does not need to worry about
being defensive.
Biggest known issues so far:
1. Condition redundant and over-annotated warnings don't fully
respect strict mode, and this leads to stupid false positives. (There is
so much more stupid false positives in condition redundant anyway, so
not particularly a big deal for now).
2. Error reporting is not specific to mode. (E.g. we don't distinct real nullables and non-trusted non-nulls, which can be misleading). To be
improved as a follow up.

Summary:
Currently, we have NullsafeRules.ml responsible for detecting the
violation fact. All other logic: what should be the error type,
severity, and error message, is in TypeErr.ml.
In this diff, we move logic from NullsafeRules.ml and TypeErr.ml to
dedicated modules like AssignmentRule.ml etc.
Each such module is responsible for:
- detecting the violation fact (this is moved from NullsafeRules.ml)
- rendering the violation error (this is moved from TypeErr.ml).
This approach makes sense for two reasons:
1. The violation fact and the way we show error are logically related to
each other.
2. In future diffs, we will support more features guiding rule behavior,
such as a) decision whether to hide or show the error depending on type
information and mode; b) the way we render error depending on type
information and role.
Having dedicated modules incapsulating knowledge about rules is a natural way to support 2.

exactly the error should be reported depending on how exactly

Summary:
It is unclear what is the purpose of doing so, and it adds complexity to
codebase.
1/ The semantics of this is not clear, it more or less corresponds to
"where are all original locations that contributed to the type
calculation", but many branches in CFG have nothing to do with
nullability; also it was used not always consistently.
2/ The only place where this was used is logs, so this is no-ops. It is
unclear how seeing all locations can help debugging, given 3/ - see
below
3/ We have the right place to store such informatin, namely TypeOrigin,
where we store locations associated with types where we merge them in
CFG. Currently, we store only "winner" - the most relevant locations
that contributed to nullability in the most informative way. We show
this to the user when we report an error.
4/ If we want to support more things (e.g. show something more to the user), TypeOrigin
seems to be the right place. Or, alternatively, we might still merge
locations in `range`, but this will be better to organize in a tree form
instead of flat list that is not really informative and helpful. It is
all speculative though since need to support things like that seems
unclear.

Summary:
Problem: PulseDomain.ml is pretty big, and contains lots of small
modules. The Infer build being a bit monolithic at the moment, it is
hard to split all these small modules off without creating some
confusion about which abstraction barries lay where. For instance, it's
fine to use `PulseDomain.ValueHistory` anywhere, but using `PulseDomain`
itself is sometimes bad when one should use `PulseAbductiveDomain`
instead.
Proposal: a poorman's library mechanism based on module aliasing. This
stack of diffs creates new Pulse* modules for all these small, safe to
use modules, together with `PulseBasicInterface.ml`, which aliases these
modules to remove the `Pulse` prefix. At the end of the stack, it will
contain:
```
module AbstractValue = PulseAbstractValue
module Attribute = PulseAttribute
module Attributes = PulseAttribute.Attributes
module CallEvent = PulseCallEvent
module Diagnostic = PulseDiagnostic
module Invalidation = PulseInvalidation
module Trace = PulseTrace
module ValueHistory = PulseValueHistory
```
This "interface" module can be opened in other pulse modules freely.

Domain for thread-type. The main goals are
- Track code paths that are explicitly on UI thread (via annotations, or assertions).
- Maintain UI-thread-ness through the call stack (if a callee is on UI thread then the
trace any call site must be on the UI thread too).
- If we are not on the UI thread we assume we are on a background thread.
- Traces with "UI-thread" status cannot interleave but all other combinations can.
- We do not track other annotations (eg WorkerThread or AnyThread) as they can be
erroneously applied -- other checkers should catch those errors (annotation reachability).
- Top is AnyThread, and is used as the initial state for analysis.
Interestingly, by choosing the right strategy for choosing initial state and applying callee summaries gets rid of some false negatives in the tests even though we have not introduced any path sensitivity yet.

Summary:
bigmacro_bender
There are 3 ways pulse tracks history. This is at least one too many. So
far, we have:
1. "histories": a humble list of "events" like "assigned here", "returned from call", ...
2. "interproc actions": a structured nesting of calls with a final "action", eg "f calls g calls h which does blah"
3. "traces", which combine one history with one interproc action
This diff gets rid of interproc actions and makes histories include
"nested" callee histories too. This allows pulse to track and display
how a value got assigned across function calls.
Traces are now more powerful and interleave histories and interproc
actions. This allows pulse to track how a value is fed into an action,
for instance performed in callee, which itself creates some more
(potentially now interprocedural) history before going to the next step
of the action (either another call or the action itself).
This gives much better traces, and some examples are added to showcase
this.
There are a lot of changes when applying summaries to keep track of
histories more accurately than was done before, but also a few
simplifications that give additional evidence that this is the right
concept.

Summary:
Java method annotations are ambiguous in that there is no difference between
annotating the return value of a method, and annotating the method itself.
The disambiguation is done entirely based on the meaning of the annotation.
Here, while `UiThread`/`MainThread` are genuine method/class annotations
and not return annotations, the reverse is true for `ForUiThread`/`ForNonUiThread`.
This means that these latter annotations do not determine the thread status of
the method they are attached to.
Here we fix that misunderstanding.
