Summary:
By and large issues of a given type (eg NULL_DEREFERENCE) are always
reported with the same severity (eg ERROR), but that severity is hard to
tease out from the code. This makes it more explicit by favouring the
default in `IssueType.t` in many cases without changing infer's
behaviour. The checkers typically use `Reporting.log_{error,warning}`;
these are taken care of in the next diff.

Summary:
- "visibility" (whether an issue to report is something to show the user
or something that is only used for debugging or for detecting other
issues) is an intrinsic property of an issue type and thus belongs in
`IssueType.t`.
- "severity" (warning/error/...) is something that each issue should
have a default for ("a memory leak is by default an ERROR", a
"condition always true is by default a warning"), but can also be
overriden at run-time. Right now only nullsafe uses that capability:
when in "strict mode", some warnings become errors. We can imagine
extending this to other issue types, or even providing config flags to
turn warnings into errors, like compilers often have.
To guess the default severity (since it's dynamic it can be hard to know
for sure!), I tried to find places where it was reported as the source
of truth, but also later diffs test these defaults against our tests (by
removing most of the dynamic changes in severity).
With this diff there are 3 places where severity is set:
1. The default severity in IssueType.t: this is unused for now.
2. The severity from `Exceptions.recognize_exception`: this is
semi-statically determined and, if set, takes precedence over number 3 (which looks wrong to me!)
3. The severity passed to `Errlog.log_issue` when we actually add an
issue to the error log: this is used only when (2) is unset.
The next diffs will make 1 the default, delete 2, and make 3 optional
but override 1 when passed.

The Java frontend translates java field accesses on an object reference as field (`.`) followed by dereference (`*`) exactly like the arrow operator in C. However, when the field is static, it generates just a field access `.`. This is a bug.

Summary:
This diff implements part of the memory management for Objective-C classes in ARC, namely that `dealloc` is called when the objects become unreachable. In reality the semantics of ARC says that this happens when their reference count becomes 0, but we are not modelling this yet in Pulse. However, we could in the future.
This fixes false positives memory leaks when the memory is freed in dealloc.
`dealloc` is often implicit in Objective-C, it also calls the dealloc of instance variables and superclass. None of this is implemented yet, and will be done in a future diff. This will be added in the frontend probably, similarly to how it's done for C++ destructors.
This is an important part of modelling Objective-C semantics in Infer, I looked at whether this should be a preanalysis to be used by all analyses but this needs Pulse. So the idea is that any analysis that needs to understand Objective-C memory model well, should have Pulse as a preanalysis.

Summary:
In order to test cost analysis results, currently we rely on having an arbitrary cost threshold (200) and report issues that exceed this cost. For instance, a cost of 201 is considered expensive and reported as `EXPENSIVE_EXECUTION_TIME` issue in cost tests.
This means, if we change the cost analysis in a slight way that results in some constant cost increase under 200, we wouldn't able to detect it. I find this unsatisfactory and somewhat hacky.
This diff adds the ability to write the result of `costs-report.json` into a separate `cost-issues.exp` and then compare the actual costs (not only than relying on this arbitrary threshold reporting mechanism).

We already store a "human readable" name for each issue. These need not
be unique. Use this instead in textual output. In order to keep the link
between the text output and the true "issue type", eg to pass to
`--disable-issue-type`, also print the `unique_id` part of the issue in
the summary:
```

pointer `s` last assigned on line 11 could be null and is dereferenced at line 12, column 3.

11. int* s = NULL;
12. *s = 42;
^
13. }
Found 1 issue
Issue Type(ISSUED_TYPE_ID): #
Null Dereference(NULL_DEREFERENCE): 1
```
We could also print the issue id in each report but that looks worse.

Summary:
## Problem
In method specialization, we don't translate the loads of specialized blocks (e.g. `n$0 = block:_fn_`) and only add them to the id map. Later on, when the block is called with arguments (`n$0(arg1,..argn))` we lookup the id and use the substitution for the block. However, this means, if the program uses the id loading the block (n$0) anywhere else in the program, we have no declaration for it.
## When does this happen?
For blocks that return a nullable result, objC programs usually do a null check as in the following example:
```
typedef id _Nullable (^BlockType)(id object);
+ (void)useBlock:(int) x
myBlock:(BlockType)myBlock{
if (myBlock){
myBlock(x);
}
}
+ (void)callUseBlock{
[X useBlock 1 myBlock:^id(id object) {
return nil;
}];
}
```
Here, method specialization currently ignores the loads of this block (`n$0=*&myBlock:_fn_(*)`) which results in having variables in prune nodes that are not defined anywhere in the CFG (like `n$0`).
This confuses control variable analysis when the conditional is wrapped in a loop because it cannot lookup where `n$0` is coming from.
## Fix
This diff fixes the issue by translating the loading of the blocks.

condition about which other checkers can enable it, eg for pulse:

```
After: `Checker` declares for each checker the list of its dependencies,
eg for impurity:
```
(* Checker.ml *)
name= "impurity";
activates= [Pulse]
```
Now `Config` computes for each checker whether it was transitively
activated by other checkers or not. It saves us from having to encode
the logic from before everywhere we want to know "is checker X
running?"; this was prone to errors.
It will also allow us to display which checkers actually run to the user
