Summary:
Whenever we see a use of a lock, infer that the current method can run in a multithreaded context. But only report when there's a write under a lock that can be read or written without synchronization elsewhere.
For now, we only infer this based on the direct usage of a lock; we don't assume a caller runs in a multithreaded context just because its (transitive) callee can.
We can work on that trickier case later, and we can work on smarter inference that takes reads under sync into account. But for now, warning on unprotected writes of reads that occur under sync appears to be too noisy.

Summary:
Previously, annotating something ThreadSafe meant "check that it is safe to run all of this procedure's methods in parallel with each other" (including self-parallelization).
This makes sense, but it means that if the user writes no annotations, we do no checking.
I'm moving toward a model of inferring when an access might happen on a thread that can run concurrently with other threads, then automatically checking that it is thread-safe w.r.t to all other accesses to the same memory (on or off the current thread thread).
This will let us report even when there are no `ThreadSafe` annotations.
Any method that is known to run on a new thread (e.g., `Runnable.run`) will be modeled as running on a thread that can run in parallel with other threads, and so will any method that is `synchronized` or acquires a lock.
In this setup, adding `ThreadSafe` to a method just means: "assume that the current method can run in parallel with any thread, including another thread that includes a different invocation of the same method (a self race) unless you see evidence to the contrary" (e.g., calling `assertMainThread` or annotating with `UiThread`).
The key step in this diff is changing the threads domain to abstract *what threads the current thread may run in parallel with* rather than *what the current thread* is. This makes things much simpler.

Previously, we just tracked a boolean representing whether we were possibly on the main thread (true) or definitely not on the main thread (false).
In order to start supporting `Thread.start`, `Runnable.run`, etc., we'll need something more expressive.
This diff introduces a lattice:
```
Any

Unknown
```
as the new threads domain. The initial value is `Unknown`, and we introduce `Main` in situations where we would have introduced `true` before.
This (mostly) preserves behavior: the main difference is that before code like
```
if (*) {
assertMainThread()
} else {
x.f = ...
}
```
would have recorded that the access to `x.f` was on the main thread, whereas now we'll say that it's on an unknown thread.

Instead of a whitelist and blacklist and default issue types and default
blacklist and filtering, consider a simpler semantics where
1. checkers can be individually turned on or off on the command line
2. most checkers are on by default
3. `--no-filtering` turns all issue types on, but they can then be turned off again by further arguments
This provides a more flexible CLI and is similar to other options in the infer
CLI, where "global" behaviour is generally avoided.
Dynamically created checkers (eg, AL linters) cause some complications in the
implementation but I think the semantics is still clear.
Also change the name of the option to mention "issue types" instead of
"checks", since the latter can be confused with "checkers".

Menu:
1. Write a jbuild file, autogenerated from jbuild.in because we need to fill in
some information at build-time (really, at configure time, but TODO), such as
whether or not clang is enabled.
2. Nuke lots of stuff from infer/src/Makefile that is now in the jbuild file
3. The jbuild file lives in infer/src/ so it can see all the sources. If we put it somewhere else, eg, infer/, then `jbuilder` scans too many files (all irrelevant) and takes 2.5s to start instead of .8s. Adding irrelevant directories to jbuild-ignore does not help.
4. jbuilder does not support subdirectories, so resort to listing all the
source files in the generated jbuild (only source directories need to be
manually listed in jbuild.in though). Still, the generated .merlin is wrong
and makes merlin find source files in _build, so manually tune it to get
good merlin support. We also lose some of merlin for unit tests as it
cannot see their build artefacts anymore.
5. checkCopyright gets its own jbuild because it's standalone. Also, remove
some deprecation warnings in checkCopyright due to the new version of Core from
a while ago.
6. Drop less-used Makefile features (they had regressed anyway) such as
building individual modules. Also, building mod_dep.pdf now takes all the
source files available so they better build (before, it would only take the
source files from the config, eg with or without clang) (that's pretty minor).
7. The toplevel is now built as a custom toplevel because that was easier. It
should soon be even easier: https://github.com/janestreet/jbuilder/issues/210
8. Move BUILTINS.mli to BUILTINS.ml because jbuilder is not happy about
interface files without implementations.
In particular, I did not try to migrate too much of the Makefile logic to jbuilder,
more can be done in the future.
