Summary:
This continues work for eliminating Annot.Item.t from Nullsafe low-level
code.
The introduced function `from_nullsafe_type` is called when we infer
initial type of the equation based on the function or field formal signature.
Before that, we did it via reading the annotation directly, which
complicates the logic and making introducing Unknown nullability tricky.
## Clarifying the semantics of PropagatesNullable
This diff also clarifies (and changes) the behavior of PropagatesNullable params.
Previously, if the return value of a function that has PropagatesNullable params was
annotated as Nullable, nullsafe was effectively ignoring PropagatesNullable effect.
This is especially bad because one can add Nullable annotation based on the logic "if the function can return `null`, it should be annotated with Nullable`.
In the new design, there is no possibility for such a misuse: the code that
applies the rule "any param is PropagatesNullable hence the return
value is nullable even if not explicitly annotated" lives in NullsafeType.ml, so
this will be automatically taken into account.
Meaning that now we implicitly deduce Nullable annotation for the return value, and providing it explicitly as an alternative that does not change the effect.
In the future, we might consider annotating the return value with `Nullable` explicit.

Summary:
In the cost checker, the range of selected control variables are used to estimate the number of loop iteration. However, sometimes the ranges of control variables are not related to how many times the loop iteration. This diff strengthens the condition for them as:
1. integers from `size` models
2. integers constructed from `+` or `-`
3. integers constructed from `*`
For the last one, the loop iteration is likely to be log scale of the range of the control variable:
```
while (i < c) {
i *= 2;
}
```
We will address this in the future.

Summary:
Introduce a new experimental checker (`--impurity`) that detects
impurity information, tracking which parameters and global variables
of a function are modified. The checker relies on Pulse to detect how
the state changes: it traverses the pre and post pairs starting from
the parameter/global variable and finds where the pre and post heaps
diverge. At diversion points, we expect to see WrittenTo/Invalid attributes
containing a trace of how the address was modified. We use these to
construct the trace of impurity.
This checker is a complement to the purity checker that exists mainly
for Java (and used for cost and loop-hoisting analyses). The aim of
this new experimental checker is to rely on Pulse's precise
memory treatment and come up with a more precise im(purity)
analysis. To distinguish the two checkers, we introduce a new issue
type `IMPURE_FUNCTION` that reports when a function is impure, rather
than when it is pure (as in the purity checker).
TODO:
- improve the analysis to rely on impurity information of external
library calls. Currently, all library calls are assumed to be nops,
hence pure.
- de-entangle Pulse reporting from analysis.

Summary:
`ModeledRange` represents how many times the interval value can be updated by modeled functions. This
domain is to support the case where there are mismatches between value of a control variable and
actual number of loop iterations. For example,
```
while((c = file_channel.read(buf)) != -1) { ... }
```
the loop will iterates as the file size, but the control variable `c` does not have that value. In
these cases, it assigns a symbolic value of the file size to the modeled range of `c`, then which
is used when calculating the overall cost.

This diff addresses collection adds in loop. For example,
```
ArrayList<...> a = new ArrayList<>();
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
a.add(...);
}
// we want to know the size of `a` here!
```
This is a common pattern on initializing a collection in Java.
How we did: Instead of adopting general (but complicated) solutions such as relational domain, we
extended the current alias domain of inferbo, to be able to handle this specific case:
* An array `a` should have size 0, at the entry of the loop.
* The iterating variable `i` should start with 0.
* `add` should be called once inside the loop.

Summary:
In D17156724, we forked nullsafe tests, which was a strategy to
introduce nullsafe-gradual mode back then.
The reason was "gradual" mode is a pretty big change in a way Infer
handles annotations, so we wanted to tests both scenarios: gradual and
non-gradual mode.
The plan was to deprecate "non-gradual" tests at some point, hence we
decided to go with duplication.
Now we have a better approach to ensure "gradual" features are well
covered. The approach is the following.
1. [Mostly finished] Improve existings tests so that they cover negative and positive
cases. With this, we can safely add something like
--non-annotated-default UNKNOWN_NULLABILITY to the test config and be sure tests still make
sense (i.e. don't pass simply because annotations don't make sense
anymore)
2. [In progress]. Refactor nullsafe code so that instead of using of Annot.ml everywhere we use a special abstraction telling if the class is annotated with Nullable, Nonnull, or not annotated. With this change, we essenstially have a single place we need to test, which removes the need to have 2 pair of tests for each feature.
3. [To be done]. Introduce Uknown nullability and add small number of tests specifically
for that feature (together with existing tests).
NOTE: I did not rename `nullsafe-default` back to `nullsafe` to not
pollute blame without need.

--Motivation--
Gradual mode we are going to introduce is an invasive change in how Infer
treats nullability semantics.
In order to make the change in a controllable way, we need the tests to comply with the
following standards and conventions.
1. For each code peace where we expect a bug to happen, the there should be
corresponding (minimally different from above) peace of code where we expect a bug to NOT happen. (This is to ensure bug is happening for exact reason we think it is happening).
2. Conversely: for each peace of code where we expect a bug to be NOT
present, there shuold be a peace of code where the bug IS happening.
(Otherwise there can be too many reasons for a bug NOT to happen).
3. Convention: end corresponding methods IsOK and IsBUG correspondingly.
4. Keep code examples as small as possible.

Summary:
In next diff, we are going to introduce a new mode of nullsafe
(gradual). For testing, we are going to employ the strategy used by jvillard
for Pulse.
In this diff we split tests into two subfolders, one for the default and one for the gradual
mode.
We are planning to make the gradual mode default eventually. For that, most
new features will make sense for gradual mode, and we will mostly evolve
tests for that mode.
As for 'default' mode, we need to preserve tests mostly to ensure we don't introduce
regressions.
Occasionally, we might make changes that make sense for both modes, in
this (expected relatively rare) cases we will make changes to both set
of tests.
An alternative strategy would be to have two sets of issues.exp files,
one for gradual and one for default mode. This has an advantage of each
java file to be always tested twice, but disadvantage is that it will be
harder to write meaningful test code so that it makes sense for both
modes simultaneously.

Present, which means that it is safe to call get().
We don't plan to support `Present` annotation for optional types in the
near future.
Support of `Present` annotation requires extra levels of abstraction
that make the changing the behavior and introducing new features harder.
A lot of checks for nullability are written in generic way so they also
check for presense.
Getting rid of that will allow us to simplify our
work for introducing new semantics for nullsafe.

`nullsafe` currently allows the following:

public void Nonnull Object willBeOK() { return null; }
```
But disallows the following:
```
public void Object willBeAnIssue() { return null; }
```
This was a deliberate choice made back in 2014.
The motivation was to provide a way to tell the checker "I know it can not be null, trust me".
A huge problem with that approach is that it is extremely non-intuitive and surprising, and contradicts with pretty much everything when Nonnull or similar annotations are used in external world.
This is not the way how checkers should be supressed.
We do provide 2 options to express this intention, namely `assertNotNull` and `assumeNotNull` would do the thing.
This is a much better approach for additional reason: assertNotNull is
granular and applies only to the exact expression that is under
question. In contrast, suppressing the check on the whole function level
make any modifications of a function dangerous.
