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).

Summary:
Previous translation of enum constants were wrong since they assumed that the enum constant didn't include any global variable (hence they just looked up the enum exp from the map, forgetting to tie the respective instructions into the cfg).
```
const int gvar = 0;
enum {
evar = gvar,
};
int dangling() {
return evar;
}
```
as a result, the CFG was missing the instruction for the load of the `gvar`.
{F237004587}
This diff fixes this issue by hooking up the instructions that load the enum constant in to the CFG. Note that in this example, it is only a load instruction but there could be more instructions (e.g. if we had `gvar > 1`, we would have prune +join).

List of things happening in this unreviewable diff:
- moved PulsePathCondition to PulseSledge
- renamed --pulse-path-conditions to --pudge
- PulsePathCondition now contains all the arithmetic of pulse
(inferbo+concrete intervals+pudge). In particular, moved arithmetic
attributes into PulsePathCondition.t. PulsePathCondition plays the
role of PulseArithmetic (combining all domains).
- added tests for a false positive involving free()
- PulseArithmetic is now just a thin wrapper around PulsePathCondition
to operate on states directly (instead of on path conditions).
- The rest is mostly moving code into PulsePathCondition (eg, from
PulseInterproc) and adjusting it.

"infer" was one of them (sic), and eg another was "eradicate".

The convention now dictates that we should name all of these

Summary:
When encountering a constant, pulse creates an abstract value (a
variable) to represent it, and remembers that it's equal to it. The
problem is that pulse doesn't yet know how to deal with the fact that
some variables are going to be equal to each other.
This hacks around this issue in the case of constants, within the same
procedure, by remembering which constants have been assigned to which
place-holder variables, and serving those variables again when the same
constant is translated again.
Limitation: this doesn't work across procedure calls as the "constant
maps" are not saved in summaries.
Something to look out for: we don't want to make `if (p == NULL)` create
a path where `p` is invalid (we only make null invalid when we see an
assignment from 0, i.e. `p = NULL;`).

Malloc returns either an allocated object or a null pointer if there is no memory available. Modelling that.

Summary:
The attribute `[no_return]` signifies that a function doesn't return. Previously, pre-analysis had cut the links to successor nodes of such no-return function nodes. This was intended to help with suppressing reporting on unreachable paths for some analyses. However, this results in having these nodes as dangling, with no connection to exit nodes.
This diff additionally shortcuts these no-return function nodes to exit node. This would allow us to enhance inter-procedural analyses like pulse to kepp track of paths that do not return since we will be keeping their connections at exit node rather than completely cutting them of as before. It would also allow us to assume that all paths start at the one start node and end at the one exit node (at least syntactically in the CFG).

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`.

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.

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`
