Summary:
This preanalysis in general aims to create specialized clones of methods that have blocks as arguments and that are called with concrete closures, and then call these clone methods instead of the original ones.
One complication is what happens with the captured variables in the closure. What we do is we add them to the formals of the cloned method and passed them through to the concrete blocks.
We do this transformation in two steps:
1. Go through all the callers of methods with blocks as parameters, and create the clone methods. In this preanalysis we only create the attributes for the new method, not the code. We also update the call instructions in the callers to represent a call to the cloned method with updated arguments: we don't need to pass closures arguments anymore, we instead pass the captured variables as new arguments.
2. We add the corresponding code to the newly created clones: this means swapping the call to the block variable with a call to the corresponding block. Moreover, we add some of the new formals (that correspond to the captured variables) to the arguments of the call.
This diff implements step 1 of the analysis. The next diff D23216021 implements step 2.

Summary: To avoid dead store false positives we skip initialization of a variable that has an `unused` attribute. However, this causes uninitialized value false positives when the variable is later used in macros. To fix this, instead of skipping initialization we record the information about `unused` attribute in local variable data that we can later use for filtering out dead store issues.

Summary:
We update the type of captured variables to include information about capture mode (`ByReference` or `ByValue`) both for procdesc attributes and the closure expression.
For lambda: closure expression now contains correct capture mode for capture variables. Procdesc still does not contain information about captured variables which we will address in the next diff.
For objc blocks: at the moment all captured variables have mode `ByReference`. Added TODOs to fix this.

Summary:
Move the implementation of implicit getters and setters from the biabduction to the clang frontend so these methods are accessible to all the checkers.
*Background*: In Objective-C when properties are created in the interface of a class, the compiler creates automatically the instance variable for it and also the getter and setter in the implementation of the class. In the frontend we collect the information about which method is the implicit getter and setter of which instance variable (we get the method declaration but not the implementation), and here we add the implicit implementation.

Summary:
This models ARC implementation of dealloc, see https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AutomaticReferenceCounting.html#dealloc. Dealloc methods can be added to ObjC classes to free C memory for example, but the deallocation of the ObjC instance variables of the object is done automatically. So here we add this explicitly to Infer:
1. First, we add an empty dealloc method when it is not written explicitly.
2. For each dealloc method (including the implicitly added ones) we add calls to dealloc of the ObjC instance variables.

Summary:
This function had been computing the name for ObjC methods wrong, with only the class name. This was causing wrong error messages in Pulse.
The main issue was that `Procname.to_simplified_string` was writing `Classname::methodname` for ObjC methods, which is not the convention. This confused the `hashable_name` funtion. So changing the method name to `Classname.methodname` which is more standard, and this also fixes `hashable_name`.

Summary:
This translates the construct `ObjCBridgedCastExpr` when the cast_kind is `OBC_BridgeTransfer`, or in syntax, the cast (`__bridge_transfer`).
This cast means that the object is passed from manual memory management to ARC, so one doesn't need to call `release` manually. It is important to model this to avoid false positives.
It translates it as a builtin that we then model in Pulse, the same way we modelled `CFBridgingRelease` which does the same thing.
The name of the builtin is `__free_cf` which is not ideal but I left it like that for compatibility with biabduction. We can change it once we remove this check from biabduction.

Summary:
This also prints the CFGs *after* pre-analysis for individual procedures
in infer-out/captured/<filename>/<proc>.dot. One can also look up the
CFGs before pre-analysis in infer-out/captured/proc_cfgs_frontend.dot.
Context: I want to add a pre-analysis that needs to look at proc
attributes inter-procedurally. For this to make sense it has to happen
*after* all of capture, and before analysis.
Thus, this diff brings back the lazy running of the pre-analysis like in
D15803492, except that we still make sure to run the pre-analyses
systematically regardless of the checkers being run by running the
pre-analysis from ondemand.ml. Also we don't need to re-introduce the
"did_preanalysis" proc attribute for the same reason that the
pre-analysis is now run once and for all by ondemand.ml (instead of each
individual checker back in the days).
This has the benefit of running the pre-analysis only when needed, and
the drawback that several concurrent processes analysing the same proc
descs will duplicate work. Since pre-analyses are supposed to be very
fast I assume that neither is a big deal. If they become more expensive
then the benefit gets bigger and the drawback is just the same as with
regular analyses.

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:
When initialising a variable via semi-exotic means, the frontend loses
the information that the variable was initialised. For instance, it
translates:
```
struct Foo { int i; };
...
Foo s = {42};
```
as:
```
s.i := 42
```
This can be confusing for backends that need to know that `s` actually
got initialised, eg pulse.
The solution implemented here is to insert of dummy call to
`__variable_initiazition`:
```
__variable_initialization(&s);
s.i := 42;
```
Then checkers can recognise that this builtin function does what its
name says.

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:
The diff is very big but it's mostly removing code. It was inspired by the fact that we were getting Dead Store FPs because we were modeling some functions from CoreFoundation and CoreGraphics directly as alloc in the frontend, which caused the parameters of the function to be seen as dead. See the new test.
To deal with this, if we are going to skip the function, we model it as malloc instead. Given how many models we had for those "model as malloc" functions, I removed them to rely solely on the new mechanism.
The modeling of malloc and release was still based on the old retain count implementation, even though all we do here is a malloc/free kind of analysis. I also changed
that to be actually malloc/free which removed many Assert false in the tests. CFRelease is not exactly free though, and it's possible to use the variable afterwards. So used a custom free builtin that only cares about removing the Memory attribute and focuses on minimizing Memory Leaks FPs.
Otherwise we were translating CFBridgingRelease as a special cast, and this wasn't working. To simplify this as well, I removed all the code for the special cast, and just modeled CFBridgingRelease and CFAutorelease also as free_cf, to avoid Memory Leak false positives. I also treated the cast __bridge_transfer as a free_cf model. This means we stopped trying to report Memory Leaks on those objects.
The modeling of CoreGraph release functions was done in the frontend, but seemed simpler to also simplify that code and model all the relevant functions.
