Summary:
Eventually thread status will be stored inside every critical pair so as to allow path sensitivity. That means that the status can no longer be a whole trace, as this will quickly become intractable, because each domain element would have to maintain its own trace as well as its own thread-status trace.
This is not great, as we lose information here, but I don't see any other way around it that is not super complicated/costly (sharing will be limited when moving from callee to caller).
Other diffs up the stack will clean up infrastructure no longer used meaningfully (ie models and domains).

Starvation is currently path insensitive. Two special cases of sensitivity cover a large range of useful cases:
- sensitivity on whether the current thread is a UI/background thread;

Summary:
This diff adopts an array length evaluation function that is conservative. It is useful when our
domain cannot express length result precisely.
For example, suppose there is an array pointer `arr_locs` that may point to two arrays `a` and `b`,
and their lengths are `a.length` and `b.length` (symbols), respectively. Using the usual
evaluation, our current domain cannot express `a.length join b.length` (join of two symbolic
values), so it returns top.
In this case, we can use the conservative function intead. It evaluates the length as `[0,
a.length.ub + b.length.ub]`, since we know every array length is positive. The result is not
precise, but better than top.

When we make the decision to go into a branch "v = N" where some

equality. This allows to prune simple infeasible paths
intra-procedurally.
Further work is needed to make this useful interprocedurally, for
instance either or both of these ideas could be explored:
- abduce v=N in the precondition and do not apply summaries when the
equalities in the pre are not satisfied
- prune post-conditions that lead to unsat states where a value has to
be equal to several different constants

In a way, attributes are already our "pure" part in the "formulas" that

Summary:
Starvation analysis keeps a trace documenting why a method is seen as on the UI thread (many reasons possible, often confusing). This was a call-stack plus string, for keeping the explanation of why the last callee is on the UI thread. This is bad, because it takes too much memory/storage (each string is custom-made to the classes/method involved), and is effectively untyped.
Switch to a proper type for explaining this, so the cost is just a few pointers plus shared procnames/types, and then convert to string only when reporting. This will also allow to push the UI trace inside each element of the starvation domain, so as to allow path sensitivity etc, without blowing up summary size.

If we acquire n nested locks we end up with n critical pairs, and for each pair the held-locks component goes up linearly, thus total space/time is O(n^2).
If the sets of held-locks are constructed with maximal sharing (intuitively, if they derive from the same set by additions) then the total space/time is O(n logn).
To do this, we must avoid constructing a new set every time we ask what the currently held locks are. Here we maintain (care is needed in the presence of recursive locks) that set across lock acquisitons and removals.

Problem: There are two phases for finding a fixpoint, widening and narrowing. First, it finds a fixpoint with widening, in function level. After that, it finds a fixpoint with narrowing. A problem is that sometimes an overly-approximated, imprecise, values by widening are flowed to the following loops. They are hard to narrow in the narrowing phase because there is a cycle preventing it.
To mitigate the problem, it tries to do narrowing, in loop level, right after it found a fixpoint of a loop. Thus, it narrows before the widened values are flowed to the following loops. In order to guarantee the termination of the analysis, this eager narrowing is applied only to the outermost loops.

3. At the conditional nodes, it prunes the alias list length of `list2` by that of `list1`.
* if `hasNext(list1's iterator)` is true, `list2`'s length is pruned by `< list1's length`

The old domain keeps two sets:
- `events` are things (including lock acquisitions) which eventually happen during the execution of a procedure.
- `order` are pairs of `(lock, event)` such that there is a trace through the procedure which at some point acquires `lock` and before releasing it performs `event`.
A deadlock would be reported if for two procedures, `(lock1,lock2)` is in `order` of procedure 1 and `(lock2,lock1)` is in `order` of procedure 2. This condition/domain allowed for the false positive fixed in the tests, as well as was unwieldy, because it required translating between the two sets.
The new domain has only one set of "critical pairs" `(locks, event)` such that there is a trace where `event` occurs, and *right before it occurs* the locks held are exactly `locks` (no over/under approximation). This allows keeping all information in one set, simplifies the procedure call handling and eliminates the known false positive.

Enforce this via the type checker by specialising the types so that lock state satisfies this by construction.

Summary:
This proceed the work of getting rid of Annot.Item.t.
This diff:
- Moves "check assignment rule" to recently supported NullsafeRules
- Implements their own "check overannotated" (defers consolidating this
check into NullsafeRule for the future diffs).
Note that we don't need PropagatesNullable logic anymore because it is
already ported to NullsafeType (return value will be marked as Nullable
in NullsafeType)!
implicit_nullable (a.k.a. Void types) will require a follow up diff to
model.

Summary:
In nutshell, Nullsafe is driven by relatively simple set of rules.
It is currently not well reflected in code: we are duplicating the same logic in different places, which is:
- error prone (we need to adjust ensure all places are addressed if a new feature is introduced)
- complicates understanding of nullsafe
Consolidating checks will simplify introducing Unknown Nullability and
strict/partial check modes.
## this diff
This diff does it for one particular check.
See follow up diffs re that proceed consolidation.
## future diffs
Future diffs will:
- consolidate other checks that use 'assignment rule'
- introduce other rules, most notably 'dereference rule' and
'inheritance rule'

Summary:
Now, after series of modifications with TypeAnnotation, we are ready to
rename it to reflect what it means in the code.
See the documentation in the class for details.
Also:
- renamed methods for clarity
- added some documentation
- renamed local variables around the usages

Summary:
This continues work for eliminating Annot.Item.t from Nullsafe low-level
code.
The introduced function `from_nullsafe_type` is called when we infer
initial type of the equation based on the function or field formal signature.
Before that, we did it via reading the annotation directly, which
complicates the logic and making introducing Unknown nullability tricky.
## Clarifying the semantics of PropagatesNullable
This diff also clarifies (and changes) the behavior of PropagatesNullable params.
Previously, if the return value of a function that has PropagatesNullable params was
annotated as Nullable, nullsafe was effectively ignoring PropagatesNullable effect.
This is especially bad because one can add Nullable annotation based on the logic "if the function can return `null`, it should be annotated with Nullable`.
In the new design, there is no possibility for such a misuse: the code that
applies the rule "any param is PropagatesNullable hence the return
value is nullable even if not explicitly annotated" lives in NullsafeType.ml, so
this will be automatically taken into account.
Meaning that now we implicitly deduce Nullable annotation for the return value, and providing it explicitly as an alternative that does not change the effect.
In the future, we might consider annotating the return value with `Nullable` explicit.

Summary:
In the cost checker, the range of selected control variables are used to estimate the number of loop iteration. However, sometimes the ranges of control variables are not related to how many times the loop iteration. This diff strengthens the condition for them as:
1. integers from `size` models
2. integers constructed from `+` or `-`
3. integers constructed from `*`
For the last one, the loop iteration is likely to be log scale of the range of the control variable:
```
while (i < c) {
i *= 2;
}
```
We will address this in the future.

Summary: Our annotation parameter parsing is too primitive to identify `resType` and before we only assumed that all Prop's can be set by any of the two suffixes: `Attr` and `Res`. After talking to Litho team, there is 3 more additions to these suffixes: `Dip`, `Sip`, and `Px`.

Summary:
Introduce a new experimental checker (`--impurity`) that detects
impurity information, tracking which parameters and global variables
of a function are modified. The checker relies on Pulse to detect how
the state changes: it traverses the pre and post pairs starting from
the parameter/global variable and finds where the pre and post heaps
diverge. At diversion points, we expect to see WrittenTo/Invalid attributes
containing a trace of how the address was modified. We use these to
construct the trace of impurity.
This checker is a complement to the purity checker that exists mainly
for Java (and used for cost and loop-hoisting analyses). The aim of
this new experimental checker is to rely on Pulse's precise
memory treatment and come up with a more precise im(purity)
analysis. To distinguish the two checkers, we introduce a new issue
type `IMPURE_FUNCTION` that reports when a function is impure, rather
than when it is pure (as in the purity checker).
TODO:
- improve the analysis to rely on impurity information of external
library calls. Currently, all library calls are assumed to be nops,
hence pure.
- de-entangle Pulse reporting from analysis.
