Summary:
Instead of emitting an ad-hoc builtin on variable declaration emit a new
metadata instruction. This allows us to remove the code matching on that
ad-hoc builtin that had to be inserted in several checkers.
Inferbo & pulse used that information meaningfully and had to undergo
some minor changes to cope with the new metada instruction.

Summary:
When initialising a variable via semi-exotic means, the frontend loses
the information that the variable was initialised. For instance, it
translates:
```
struct Foo { int i; };
...
Foo s = {42};
```
as:
```
s.i := 42
```
This can be confusing for backends that need to know that `s` actually
got initialised, eg pulse.
The solution implemented here is to insert of dummy call to
`__variable_initiazition`:
```
__variable_initialization(&s);
s.i := 42;
```
Then checkers can recognise that this builtin function does what its
name says.

Summary:
The diff is very big but it's mostly removing code. It was inspired by the fact that we were getting Dead Store FPs because we were modeling some functions from CoreFoundation and CoreGraphics directly as alloc in the frontend, which caused the parameters of the function to be seen as dead. See the new test.
To deal with this, if we are going to skip the function, we model it as malloc instead. Given how many models we had for those "model as malloc" functions, I removed them to rely solely on the new mechanism.
The modeling of malloc and release was still based on the old retain count implementation, even though all we do here is a malloc/free kind of analysis. I also changed
that to be actually malloc/free which removed many Assert false in the tests. CFRelease is not exactly free though, and it's possible to use the variable afterwards. So used a custom free builtin that only cares about removing the Memory attribute and focuses on minimizing Memory Leaks FPs.
Otherwise we were translating CFBridgingRelease as a special cast, and this wasn't working. To simplify this as well, I removed all the code for the special cast, and just modeled CFBridgingRelease and CFAutorelease also as free_cf, to avoid Memory Leak false positives. I also treated the cast __bridge_transfer as a free_cf model. This means we stopped trying to report Memory Leaks on those objects.
The modeling of CoreGraph release functions was done in the frontend, but seemed simpler to also simplify that code and model all the relevant functions.

Summary:
We supported globals as sources before, but we did so by allowing ClangTrace etc. to match against any access path in the footprint of the trace.
This is very powerful/flexible, but it's ultimately not a good idea because it leads to traces that are hard to read.
This is because a footprint source doesn't have any information about its provenance: we might know that the value came from a global, but we don't know where the read occurred.
The mechanism for handling procedure calls as sources already knows how to solve this problem.
This diff implements globals as sources as a special case of procedure call sources instead.
This will give us much nicer traces with full provenance of the read from the global.

Summary:
Both `stringWithUTF8String` and `stringWithString` implements copy semantics that copies the content of their parameter into a newly allocated buffer. We modeled this as pointer assignment in the past, which means that once we write
```
NSString* foo() {
char buf[...];
...
return [NSString stringWithUTF8String:buf];
}
```
We are going to get a spurious stack variable address escape report because local pointer `buf` is assigned to the newly created string and the string gets returned.
This diff tries to address the issue by heap-allocating a buffer and `memcpy` the contents in `stringWithUTF8String` and `stringWithString`. But this change will create another problem: the allocated buffer will be reported as leaked by the backend, while in reality those buffers won't actually be leaked as they are allocated in a region that will be periodically autoreleased. To suppress spurious memory leak FPs, I added another attribute `Awont_leak` that will suppress the leakage report on any expressions that get tagged with it.

Summary:
Make it possible to write one model which will be used by all template instantiations.
There is one big missing piece: infer never tries to do template instantiation by itself. With current code, it's possible to use generic models
as long as header contains `__infer_generic_model` annotation (see the test as an example).
This is not viable to modify all headers with this annotation hence infer will try to do template instantiation for generic models in later diffs.

Summary:
this makes frontends no longer depend on SymExec.ml. `ModelBuiltins` was split into two modules:
- `BuiltinDecl` with procnames for builtins (used to determine whether some function is a builtin)
- `BuiltinDefn` with implementations used by `SymExec`
- they both have similar type defined in `BUILTINS.S` which makes sure that new builtin gets added into both modules.
During the refactor I ran some scripts:
`BuiltinDecl.ml`:
let X = create_procname "X"
cat BuiltinDecl.ml | grep "create_procname" | tail -70 | awk ' { print $1,$2,$3,$4,"\42"$2"\42"} '
then manually confirm string match. Exceptions:
"__exit" -> "_exit"
"objc_cpp_throw" -> "__infer_objc_cpp_throw"
__objc_dictionary_literal
nsArray_arrayWithObjects
nsArray_arrayWithObjectsCount
`BuiltinDefn.ml`:
let X = Builtin.register BuiltinDecl.X execute_X
cat BuiltinDecl.ml | grep "create_procname" | tail -70 | awk ' { print $1,$2,$3,"Builtin.register BuiltinDecl."$2,"execute_"$2} '
then, fix all compilation problems
