Summary:
Although try-with-resource is supported by nullsafe this code pattern
throws it off and make nullsafe report on a virtual **b**yte-**c**ode
variable.
Check out debug output from `TryWithResource` (or attached
visualisation of CFG):
0. node14: $bcvar2=null (on entry to try-with-resource).
1. node16: n$14=$bcvar2, but **also** PRUNE(!(n$14 == null), true). Then we go to
2. node18: do something here and in case of exception go to
3. node25->node23->node19->node20: and here we do
$bcvar2->addSuppressed(...).
Because on step 1 we refined nullability of n$14, but didn't refine
nullability of $bcvar20, on step 3 we are sure that $bcvar is null and
therefore issue an error.

This is likely not the final refinement, rather one step forward.
We classify all classes by 3 categories:
- Nullsafe and 0 issues
- can add Nullsafe and will be 0 issues
- the rest (class needs improvement)
Each class will fall into exactly one category.
Error messaging is WIP, they are not intended to be surfaced to the user
just yet.

# Problem
Consider
```
some_method(Object a) { a.deref(); }
```
What is nullability of `a` when we dereference it?
Logically, things like "LocallyCheckedNonnull" etc are not applicable
here.
This would be applicable if we called some_method() outside! But not
inside. Inside the function, it can freely treat params as non-null, as
long they are declared as non-nullable.
The best we can capture it is via StrictNonnull nullability.

Summary:
# Problem
In current design, Rules (assignment rule, dereference rule, inheritance
rule) decide, depending on the mode, wether the issue is legit or not.
If the issue is not actionable for the given mode, it won't be created
and registered.
For meta-issues, we want to be able to do smart things like:
- Identify if we can raise strictness of the mode without
introducing new issues
- Classify classes on "clean" vs "broken", taking into account issues
that are currently invisible.
# Solution
In the new design:
1. Rules are issuing violations independently of mode. This makes sense
semantically. Mode is "level of trust we have for suspicious things",
but the thing does not cease to be suspicious in any mode.
2. Each Rule decides if it is reportable or not in a given mode.
3. `nullsafe_mode` is passed to the function `register_error`, that 1)
adds error so it can be recorded in summary for file-level analysis
phase 2) reports some of them to the user.
# This diff
This diff converts only AssignmentRule, follow up will include
conversion of other rules, so no issue encapsutes the mode.

Summary:
This diff is doing three things:
1. Finishes work paved in D20115024, and applies it to nullsafe. In that diff, we hardened API for
file level analysis. Here we use this API in nullsafe, so now we can
analyze things on file-level, not only in proc-level like it was before!
2. Introduces a class-level analysis. For Nullsafe purposes, file is not
an interesting granularity, but we want to analyze a lot of things on
file level. Interesting part here is anonymous classes and how we link
them to their corresponding user-defined classes.
3. Introduces a first (yet to be improved) implementation of class-level
analysis. Namely it is "meta-issues" that tell what is going with class
on high level. For now these are two primitive issues, and we will
refine them in follow up diffs. They are disabled by default.
Follow ups include:
1. Refining semantics of meta-issues.
2. Adding other issues that we could not analyze before or analyzed not
user friendly. Most importantly, we will use it to improve reporting for
FIELD NOT INITIALIZED, which is not very user friendly exactly because
of lack of class-level aggregation.

Summary:
1. It is convenient to stick with the policy "ERROR if and only if it is
enforced". Among other, it makes CI integration much easier to implement
(enforcemend, UI and messaging is decided based on severity).
2. Since Nullsafe annotation is an idiomatic way to indicate classes
with enforced nullability checking, we want it to be the only way to
enforce issues.
3. This means we decrease the priority of GraphQL violation issues.
(In practice they were not enforced so we have plenty of violations in
codebase to reflect reality). The proper way dealing with GraphQL will
be detecting such issues as a special issue type and prioritizing fixing
and Nullsafe-ifying corresponding classes.
4. Among other, we downgrade severity of field overannotated to advice
to keep it consistent with condition redundant.

Now when typechecking a class `A` marked with `Nullsafe(LOCAL)`,
classes from trusted list are properly recognized and nullability of
method params and return value are refined to `LocallyCheckedNonnull`
in a context of class `A`.
NOTE: refininng nullability when **accessing fields** on trusted classes
is **not implemented yet**, because the whole business of handling fields
in nullsafe is somewhat convoluted. This should not be a huge issue
though, since in Java fields are commonly accessed via getters any
way.

We need to be able to differentiate `UncheckedNonnull`s in internal vs

nullability which led to hacks for optmistic third-party parameter
checks in `eradicateChecks.ml` and lack of third-party enforcement in
`Nullsafe(LOCAL, trust=all)` mode (i.e. we want to trust internal
unchecked code, but don't want to trust unvetted third-party).
Now such values are properly modelled and can be accounted for
regularly within rules.
Also, various whitelists are refactored using
`Nullability.is_considered_nonnull ~nullsafe_mode nullability`.
`ErrorRenderingUtils` became a tad more convoluted, but oh well, one

Summary:
This refactoring unblocks the changes in follow up diffs (plus fixes a
bug).
So what was happening?
Each comparison with null leads to CFG being splitted into two branches, one branch
is PRUNE(a == null) and another is PRUNE(a != null).
PRUNE(a != null) is where most of logic happens, it is the place where
we infer non-null nullability for a, and this is a natural place to
leave a check for redundancy.
Before this diff we effectively checked the same thing twice, and used
`true_branch` (only one of 2 instruction will have it set to true) as a symmetry breaker.
This diff removes the `true_branch` checks, but leaves only one call out
of two, hence breaking symmetry in a different way.
## Bug fix
The code around the removed check was (crazily) doing two things at
once: it processed results of (returning booleans!)
TrueOnNull-annotated functions AND
results of (returning Objects!) other functions, using the fact that all
of them are encoded as zero literals (sic!).
Not surprisingly that lead to a bug where we accidentally call the check
for non intended places (arguments of trueOnNull functions), which lead
to really weird FP.
This diff fixes it.

type system violations, rather than linter reccomendations.
Particularly, we refrain from saying things like "may be null" - this is
a linter-style statement that may provoke discussions (what if the
developer knows it can not be null in this particular case).
Instead, we refer to declared nullability and nullability of actual values. This way, it is more clear that this is not a heuristic, this is how rules of a type-system work.
2/ Additionally, we drop things like field class in places when the
context should be clear by who looks at the error. We expect the user
sees the code and the error caption. So e.g. we don't repeat the word "field"
twice.
3/ In cases when we are able to retrieve formal param name, we include it for
usability.

this is a non-obvious but important nullsafe feature.
