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

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:
The "placement new" operator `new (e) T` constructs a `T` in the pre-allocated memory address `e`.
We weren't translating the `e` part, which was leading to false positives in the dead store analysis.

Summary:
The clang frontend uses `assert false` for unimplemented features that should
abort method translations, as well as for genuine internal errors.
Distinguishing between the two, we can fail hard on the latter and not the
former.
1. This introduces a new exception `Unimplemented` that is used instead of `assert false` where appropriate.
2. Changed some other cases into `die ...` (when there's an error message to display)
3. Wherever a path in the code that we assumed to be unreachable was observed reachable, we now raise `IncorrectAssumption`. These should be fixed, but the fixes are not obvious.

Backend needs to know whether type is const or not. In order to achieve it, frontend needs to know it first.
This diff changes bunch of things:
- update clang plugin to have AST exporter actually export that info most of the time
- change types of functions in clang frontend until it compiles
- replace `type_ptr` with `qual_type` and `tp` with `qt` in names where applicable
- cleanup some things in the process

Summary:
1. Attempt to simplify callExpr_trans by merging multiple if-else branches into one in `CTrans_utils.builtin_trans`. Not every special case works that way, so some of them are still there.
2. On top of that, make type of parameters in `CTrans_models` functions `Procname.t` instead `Procname.t option`. This triggered some more changes to `callExpr_trans`.
3. Semi-randomly reorder instructions in `callExpr_trans`
This is mainly an attempt to clean up the code so any suggestions how to make it better are welcome.

Now that array types record only static - and therefore constant -
lengths, Sil typ and exp no longer need to be mutually recursive.
This diff:
- splits the recursion in the type definitions of typ and exp,
- splits the recursion in the comparison and pretty-printing
functions,
- and then refactors typ into a separate module.

Summary:public
When a conditional is the last instruction, there will be a join node leading directly to the exit node.
Some instructions, such as nullification of dead variables, and abstraction, are added to the control flow graph automatically. But, join nodes cannot contain instructions. So when a procedure ends with a conditional, there might be no place to store these instructions.
This diff adds one extra node between the join and the exit node in that situation.

I have seen enough comments in this space by people during code review to switch on the analyses the compiler can already do. This diff is an automated renaming of unused identifiers to _, with a few additional changes made when reading the diff of the results for things that stood out as particularly strange. This base-lines all of the existing warnings. I'm not sure this is a good idea, since it might be better for those familiar with each part of the code to look at these warnings and use them as pointers to suspicious code.
