Summary:
The issue type `ZERO_EXECUTION_TIME` actually corresponds to bottom state but has been mistakenly used to mean
- unreachable nodes (program never reaching exit state)
- having zero cost (e.g. for allocations).
Note that, for execution costs, the latter doesn't make sense since we always incur a unit cost for the start node. Hence, a function with empty body will have unit cost. For allocations or IO however, we only incur costs for specific primitives, so a function with no allocations/IO could have a zero cost. However, there is no point reporting functions with zero cost as a specific issue type. Instead, what we want to track is the former, i.e. functions whose cost becomes 0 due to program never reaching exit state.
This diff aims to split these cases into two by only reporting on the latter and adds traces to bottom/unreachable cost by creating a special category in polynomials.
Next diff will rename `ZERO_XXX` to `XXX_UNREACHABLE_AT_EXIT`.

Summary:
A plugin update allows infer to know when a function doesn't return
according to its attributes. This propagates this info all the way to
the attributes of each function, and then use this information in a new
pre-analysis that cuts the links to successor nodes of each `Call`
instruction to a function that does not return.
NOTE: The "no_return" `CallFlag.t` was dead code, following diffs deal
with that (by removing it).

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.

This diff tries to make less imprecise division by constants results.
For example, the results of the division `[l, u] / c`, where `c` is a positive constant, are:
1. If `l/c` or `u/c` is representable in the bound domain, it uses the precise bounds, i.e., `[l/c, u/c]`.
2. If it is not representable, it tries to make conservative results:
if `0<=l<=u`, it returns `[0, u]` because `0 <= [l/c, u/c] <= u`
if `l<=u<=0`, it returns `[l, 0]` because `l <= [l/c, u/c] <= 0`
if `l<=0<=u`, it returns `[l, u]` because `l <= [l/c, u/c] <= u`
3. otherwise, it returns top, `[-oo, +oo]`

In this diff, it avoids a precision-losing pruning, which was needed

```
unsigned int c = a + b; // (1)
if (c > 0) { // (2)
char result[c];
result[c - 1] = 0; // (4)
}
```
For example, in the example, `c` is assigned by `[a+b,a+b]` at (1),
then it tried to prune the lower bound of `c` to 1 at (2) while losing
precision, in order to say `c - 1` at (4) is safe in terms of integer
underflow. Instead, it could not say that `c - 1` is smaller than `c`
in the buffer access, because the former is analyzed to `[0,a+b-1]` and
the latter `[1,a+b]` at (4).
Now, the situation has changed. By adopting conditional proof
obligation (D13749914), the FP of integer overflow can be suppressed
without the precision-losing pruning.

It weakens canonical path in order to avoid an explosion of locations when a struct type has pointers to struct.
For example:
```
struct Tree {

struct Tree *left;
struct Tree *right;
};
```
It was able to generate lots of abstract locations before this diff:
```
t->root
t->left

t->left->right
t->right->root

t->root->left->right
t->root->right->left
t->left->root->right
t->left->right->root
t->right->root->left
t->right->left->root

By this diff, pointer fields that have the same type are (unsoundly) canonicalized to the same one. For example,
```
t->root
t->root->left
t->root->right
t->root->left->right
t->root->right->left
```
are canonicalized to `t->root`. This is definitely unsound but I believe it is better than the location explosion by which analyses do not terminate in a reasonable time or giving a fixed limit of depth to the field access.

It materializes symbolic values of function parameters on-demand. The on-demand materialization is triggered when finding a value from an abstract memory and joining/widening abstract memories.
Depends on D13294630
Main idea:
* Symbolic values are on-demand-ly generated by a symbol path and its type
* In order to avoid infinite generation of symbolic values, symbol paths are canonicalized by structure types and field names (which means they are abstracted to the same value). For example, in a linked list, a symbolic value `x->next->next` is canonicalized to `x->next` when the structures (`*x` and `*x->next`) have the same structure type and the same field name (`next`).
Changes from the previous code:
* `Symbol.t` does not include `id` and `pname` for distinguishing symbols. Now, all symbols are compared by `path:SymbolPath.partial` and `bound_end`.
* `SymbolTable` is no longer used, which was used for generating symbolic values with new `id`s.

Before, the liveness pre-analysis would place extra instructions in the

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`.
