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:
Both `stringWithUTF8String` and `stringWithString` implements copy semantics that copies the content of their parameter into a newly allocated buffer. We modeled this as pointer assignment in the past, which means that once we write
```
NSString* foo() {
char buf[...];
...
return [NSString stringWithUTF8String:buf];
}
```
We are going to get a spurious stack variable address escape report because local pointer `buf` is assigned to the newly created string and the string gets returned.
This diff tries to address the issue by heap-allocating a buffer and `memcpy` the contents in `stringWithUTF8String` and `stringWithString`. But this change will create another problem: the allocated buffer will be reported as leaked by the backend, while in reality those buffers won't actually be leaked as they are allocated in a region that will be periodically autoreleased. To suppress spurious memory leak FPs, I added another attribute `Awont_leak` that will suppress the leakage report on any expressions that get tagged with it.

Summary:
It can be useful when debugging infer or the Makefiles themselves to see what
`make` is doing. Instead of editing Makefiles to remove `@` now you can `make
VERBOSE=1`.
This is just `git ls-files | grep -e Makefile -e '.*\.make' | xargs sed -e 's/^\t@/\t$(QUIET)/' -i`, and adding the definition of `QUIET` to Makefile.config.

Summary:
This makes sure that one can run `./build-infer.sh` then `make`. Otherwise it's
not always clear what one should do to recompile infer, eg when `make` will
work and when `./build-infer.sh` should be used instead, in particular when the
user doesn't have opam configured for her terminal.

Summary:
Array types where the length is not statically known were represented
using fresh variables. This diff:
- Makes array type length optional, reducing the amount of work needed
for renaming, substitution, and normalization.
- Revises uses of array length so that the length component of a
Tarray type represents only the statically determined constant
length of an array type, and the length component of a Sizeof
expression represents the dynamically determined length of an array
value.
- Restricts the type of static lengths from a general expression
(Sil.exp) to an integer (Sil.Int.t), enforcing that static types are
constant. This in particular ensures that types contain no
variables, and so are invariant under operations such as renaming
and substitution.
- Removes the type substitution and renaming functions typ_sub,
typ_normalize, and typ_captured_ren. Now that array type lengths
are constant integers, all of these functions are the identity.
