Summary: C++17 introduce guaranteed copy elision which omits constructor calls. In ownership analysis, we depended on these constructor calls to acquire ownership. In particular, when a method returns struct, previously, a constructor was used to acquire ownership. In this diff, we acquire ownership of the returned structs directly.

Summary:
The addresses of global variables do not need initialisation to exist and be valid as they are part of the code or data segment of the program. This means that taking the address of a global is not in itself a danger for SIOF. However, dereferencing such an address would be. In order to avoid false positives but avoid being too unsound, only ignore them when the address is taken only to set another global. The general case would require a more complicated abstract domain.

This records the bucket for *all* the tests, even though some never produce a

bucket information when the test changes, or when copy/pasting from a test that
doesn't have buckets to one that does.
The implementation is pretty crude: it greps the beginning of the qualifier

Moving away from C++ include-based models means that we cannot reliably detect

having to have its own models anyway.

Summary:
Labels inside switch statements were causing havoc (see test), and the translation of switch statements in general could be improved to handle more cases.
It turns out that `case` (and `default`) statements are more or less fancy labels into the code. In other words, if you erase all the `case XXX:` and `default:` strings in the `switch` statement you get the real structure of the program, and `switch` just jumps straight to the first `case` directives (and to the second if the first one is not satisfied, etc. until all `case`/`default` have been considered).
This suggests an alternative implementation: translate the body of the `switch` and simply record the list of switch cases inside that body, along with where they point to. Then post-process this list to construct the control flow of the `switch`, which points into the control-flow of the `body`. In order not to modify every function in `CTrans` to propagate the current list of cases, I created an ugly `ref` inside `SwitchCase` instead (but it cannot be directly accessed and it's guaranteed to be well-parenthesised wrt nested switches by the `SwitchCase` API so it's not too bad).
[unrelated] Also make translation failures output more information about what exactly in the source code is causing the crash, and the ancestors in the AST that lead to the crash site.

Summary:
This diff:
- translates C++ `catch` blocks
- adds an exceptional control-flow edge from the end of a `try` block to the beginning of a `catch` block
This obviously doesn't reflect the way exceptions actually work, but I think it is better than what we have now. For one thing, we'll see/translate code inside `catch` blocks, which were opaque before. If Clang analyses don't want this behavior, they can simply use `ProcCfg.Normal` (which, up until this diff, behaved identically to `ProcCfg.Exceptional`.
In the future, we can extend `trans_state` to track blocks that might throw an exception, and have each of these blocks transition to `catch` instead.

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 `may_last_field` boolean value in the `decl_sym_val` function presents that the location *may* (not *must*) be a flexible array member.
By the modular analysis nature, it is impossible to determine whether a given argument is a flexible array member or not---because of lack of calling context. For example, there are two function calls of `foo` below: (2) passes a flexible array member as an argument and (1) passes a non-flexible array, however it is hard to notice when analyzing the `foo` function.
```
struct T {
int c[1];
};
struct S {
struct T a;
struct T b;
};
void foo(struct T x) { ... }
void goo () {
struct S* x = (struct S*)malloc(sizeof(struct S) + 10 * sizeof(int));
foo(&(x->a)); // (1)
foo(&(x->b)); // (2)
}
```
We assume that any given arguments may stem from the last field of struct, i.e., flexible array member. (This is why `decl_sym_val` is called with `may_last_field:true` at the first time.) With some tests, we noticed that the assumption does not harm the analysis precision, because whether regarding a parameter as a flexible array member or not is about using a symbolic array size instead of a constant array size written in the type during the analysis of callee. Therefore still it can raise correct alarms if the actual parameter is given in its caller.
