Summary:
The old domain keeps two sets:
- `events` are things (including lock acquisitions) which eventually happen during the execution of a procedure.
- `order` are pairs of `(lock, event)` such that there is a trace through the procedure which at some point acquires `lock` and before releasing it performs `event`.
A deadlock would be reported if for two procedures, `(lock1,lock2)` is in `order` of procedure 1 and `(lock2,lock1)` is in `order` of procedure 2. This condition/domain allowed for the false positive fixed in the tests, as well as was unwieldy, because it required translating between the two sets.
The new domain has only one set of "critical pairs" `(locks, event)` such that there is a trace where `event` occurs, and *right before it occurs* the locks held are exactly `locks` (no over/under approximation). This allows keeping all information in one set, simplifies the procedure call handling and eliminates the known false positive.

Summary:
Ideally the analyser should equate locks `this.x.f` and `a.x.f` in different methods if they can alias.
The heuristic removed here was rarely used and is in the way of a re-write of the analysis.
It was also badly implemented, as this should ideally be the comparison relation of `Lock`.

Summary:
We need to report on non-private methods (the opposite even leads to FPs sometimes on deadlocks). To do this, the domain needs to change so that the interpretation of an order pair `a,b` is no longer "lock `a` is taken in the *current method* and held until lock `b` is taken". Instead the meaning is now "lock `a` is taken in some method *of the same class with the current method* and is held until `b` is taken".
These changes are quite drastic because the previous implementation optimised extensively around the previous use case.

Summary:
Use the component of the abstract state `events` to report. This set contains reachability facts about blocking calls and lock acquisitions.
The other component, `order`, contained pairs of a reachable event `e'` from an event option with the semantics that if the option is `None` then we have an element that now goes into `events`, and if the option is `Some e` then the element represents a lock acquired and a trace *from* `e` to `e'`
Now, `order` can be simplified to proper pairs of events, without the option.

Summary:
It's useful to test that the bucket a given error is classified as doesn't
change over time without notice.
This records the bucket for *all* the tests, even though some never produce a
bucket. This is to be on the safe size instead of risking to forget adding the
bucket information when the test changes, or when copy/pasting from a test that
doesn't have buckets to one that does.
The implementation is pretty crude: it greps the beginning of the qualifier
string for a `[bucket]`.
