Summary:
The goals are to have all the checker definitions and documentation in one
place (except how to actually run them, since that's not quite the same
concept; for example inferbo is one checker but several analyses depend on its
symbolic execution), and later on to be able to link issues reported by infer
back to the checker that generated them.
This makes apparent that the documentation of our checkers is lacking,
not touching that in this diff.
Not sure if "analysis" would be a better name than "checker" at this
point? For instance "Linters" is one of the checkers, which historically
at least we have not considered to be the case.

Summary:
The big one:
- stop using polymorphic `<>`, `<`, `>`, ..
- add `<>` to `PolyVariantEqual` escape hatch now that `<>` is as taboo as `=`
- Interestingly, there were a lot of uses of `Z.(x < y)`, which although
they seem to use `Z.lt` actually used polymorphic comparison. The actual
comparison infix operators of `Z` are cleverly hidden in `Z.Compare`
instead, which makes them impractical to use...

Summary:
Move most of IR/Sil.ml into a new file biabduction/Predicates.ml to
reflect the fact that they are only useful for the biabduction analysis.
Unfortunately this is a huge change.
I tried to keep the change to a minimum, it's mostly about doing
s/Sil/Predicates/ in lots of places but sometimes I used the trick of
specifying parameters or return value types to avoid specifying the
module altogether. This isn't done consistently because there were just
too many places to change for poor me.

Summary:
Remove Clang and Java submodules of Typ.Fieldname. They are unnecessary and they reflect a fake dichotomy: there is only one fieldname type. To distinguish between fields of Java classes and other C constructs, there is a helper function provided, but the idea is simple: obtain the class type the field belongs to, and check if it's a Java class.
This diff still preserves behaviour, but removes as many functions as possible from the interface, to leave a small surface.

Summary:
This diff enables parsing and auto-formatting documentation
comments (aka docstrings).
I have looked at this entire diff and manually made some changes to
improve the formatting. In some cases it looked like it would take too
much time, or benefit from someone more familiar with the code doing
it, and I instead disabled auto-formatting docstrings in those files.
Also, there are some source files where the docstrings are invalid,
and some where the structure detected by the parser appears not to
match what was intended. Auto-formatting has been disabled for these
files.

Summary:
Bundle all non-semantic-bearing instructions into a `Metadata _`
instruction in SIL.
- On a documentation level this makes clearer the distinction between
instructions that encode the semantics of the program and those that are
just hints for the various backend analysis.
- This makes it easier to add more of these auxiliary instructions in
the future. For example, the next diff introduces a new `Skip` auxiliary
instruction to replace the hacky `ExitScope([], Location.dummy)`.
- It also makes it easier to surface all current and future such
auxiliary instructions to HIL as the datatype for these syntactic hints
can be shared between SIL and HIL. This diff brings `Nullify` and
`Abstract` to HIL for free.

Summary:
Found the dead code with the script in the next commit, iteratively until no
warnings remained.
Methodology:
1. I kept pretty-printers for values, which can be useful to use from infer's REPL (or
when printf-debugging infer in general)
2. I kept functions that formed some consistent API (but not often, so YMMV), for instance if it looked like `Set.S`, or if it provides utility functions for stuff in development (mostly the procname dispatcher functions)
3. I tried not to lose comments associated with values no longer exported: if the value is commented in the .mli and not the .ml, I moved the comment
4. Some comments needed updating (not claiming I caught all of those)
5. Sometimes I rewrote the comments a bit when I noticed mis-attached comments

Naming a variable `_foo` makes the compiler not warn about them if they are

they are in fact used, defeating the warning and introducing confusion for
those used to this naming convention.
Basically `sed -i -e "s/ _\([a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_']*\)/ \1_/g" **/*.ml` followed
by manual fixing of compilation errors (lots of `compare__foo` ->
`compare_foo_`).

Summary:
Change the API of `Logging` wrt to writing to files and to the console (see
changes in logging.mli).
Write only to one log file: infer-out/log. Prefix each line with the kind of
warning and the PID of the process emitting it. Writing with `O_APPEND` is
atomic so the file should not get garbled by concurrent writes. To get the
output of a single process, find out which one interests you by looking at
infer-out/log, then `grep ^[<PID>] infer-out/log`.
Introduce 3 log levels for debug output and command-line options to set them
for various categories individually.
Change tons of `"\n"` to `"@\n"` so the `Format` module is aware of newlines
without us having to look through every character of every logged string for
`\n` characters.

Summary:
Try and enforce the following rules:
- stderr is for updating the user about progress or errors
- Introduce Logging.progress that outputs to stderr, but honours --quiet
- Logging.stderr is as before
- Logging.out now prints to stderr (or to log files as before if set up) and
not stdout. If some information should go on stdout then the user should be
able to rely on it (ie, it's not just some progress message). For now only
the summary of the errors is printed on stdout by default.
- Logging.err* functions are gone. If the error is user-visible, it should be
Logging.stderr, or `failwith`. If not, go to the same log file as other
output, which personally I find much more convenient than having to dig through
2 log files every time I'm looking for some output.
