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: In an intra-procedural analysis, we assume that parameters passed by reference to a function will be initialized inside that function. To do that we use the type information of a formal parameter to initialize the fields of the struct. This was causing false positives if the formal parameter in function signature had type `void*`. To solve this, we used type information from local variables instead. However, we also get false positives for any kind of pointer if we use cast. We fix this by using type information of local variables as in `void*` case.

Summary: In an intra-procedural analysis we assume that parameters passed by reference to a function will be initialized inside that function. We use the type information of an actual parameter to initialize the fields of the struct. This does not work if a function has a parameter of type void* as the actual parameters also has type void*. To solve this issue, we use type information from local variables.

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:
New clang in the plugin \o/
Changes that were needed:
- (minor) Some extra AST nodes
- defining a lambda and calling it in the same line (`[&x]() { x = 1; }()`) used to get translated as a call of the literal but now an intermediate variable gets created, which confuses uninit in one test. I added another test to showcase the limitation this is hitting: storing the lambda in a variable then calling it will not get caught by the checker.
The controller you requested could not be found.: facebook-clang-plugins

Summary: We get a lot of false positives for union types as union fields are treated as separate memory locations at the moment. For now we do not treat union fields as uninitialised.
