Summary:
This also prints the CFGs *after* pre-analysis for individual procedures
in infer-out/captured/<filename>/<proc>.dot. One can also look up the
CFGs before pre-analysis in infer-out/captured/proc_cfgs_frontend.dot.
Context: I want to add a pre-analysis that needs to look at proc
attributes inter-procedurally. For this to make sense it has to happen
*after* all of capture, and before analysis.
Thus, this diff brings back the lazy running of the pre-analysis like in
D15803492, except that we still make sure to run the pre-analyses
systematically regardless of the checkers being run by running the
pre-analysis from ondemand.ml. Also we don't need to re-introduce the
"did_preanalysis" proc attribute for the same reason that the
pre-analysis is now run once and for all by ondemand.ml (instead of each
individual checker back in the days).
This has the benefit of running the pre-analysis only when needed, and
the drawback that several concurrent processes analysing the same proc
descs will duplicate work. Since pre-analyses are supposed to be very
fast I assume that neither is a big deal. If they become more expensive
then the benefit gets bigger and the drawback is just the same as with
regular analyses.

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:
Before, the liveness pre-analysis would place extra instructions in the
CFG for either:
1. marking an `Ident.t` as dead, or
2. marking a `Pvar.t` as `= 0`
But we have no way of marking pvars dead without setting them to 0. This
is bad because setting pvars to 0 is not possible everywhere they are
dead. Indeed, we only do it when we haven't seen their address being
taken anyway. This prevents the following situation, recorded in our tests:
```
int address_taken() {
int** x;
int* y;
int i = 7;
y = &i;
x = &y;
// if we don't reason about taken addresses while adding nullify instructions,
// we'll add
// `nullify(y)` here and report a false NPE on the next line
return **x;
}
```
So we want to mark pvars as dead without nullifying them. This diff
extends the `Remove_temps` SIL instruction to accept pvars as well, and
so renames it to `ExitScope`.

Summary:
Useful to understand the changes in the pre-analysis, or to inspect the
CFG that checkers actually get.
This means that the pre-analysis always runs when we output the dotty,
but I don't really see a reason why not. In fact, we could probably
*always* store the CFGs as pre-analysed.

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:
Labels inside switch statements were causing havoc (see test), and the translation of switch statements in general could be improved to handle more cases.
It turns out that `case` (and `default`) statements are more or less fancy labels into the code. In other words, if you erase all the `case XXX:` and `default:` strings in the `switch` statement you get the real structure of the program, and `switch` just jumps straight to the first `case` directives (and to the second if the first one is not satisfied, etc. until all `case`/`default` have been considered).
This suggests an alternative implementation: translate the body of the `switch` and simply record the list of switch cases inside that body, along with where they point to. Then post-process this list to construct the control flow of the `switch`, which points into the control-flow of the `body`. In order not to modify every function in `CTrans` to propagate the current list of cases, I created an ugly `ref` inside `SwitchCase` instead (but it cannot be directly accessed and it's guaranteed to be well-parenthesised wrt nested switches by the `SwitchCase` API so it's not too bad).
[unrelated] Also make translation failures output more information about what exactly in the source code is causing the crash, and the ancestors in the AST that lead to the crash site.
