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:
Add support for GuardedBy: we deviate from the spec as follows:
- No warnings issued for any access within a private method, unless that method is called from a public method and the lock isn't held when the access occurs.
- Warnings are suppressed with the general RacerD mechanism, ie `ThreadSafe(enableChecks=false)`
- GuardedBy warnings override thread-safety violation warnings on the same access, because GuardedBy has a clearer and simpler contract.
Also, some simplifications, cleanups and perf improvements (eg avoid unreportable procs at the top level as opposed to on each of their accesses).

Summary:
Context: "quandary" traces optimise for space by only storing a call site (plus analysis element) in a summary, as opposed to a list of call sites plus the element (i.e., a trace). When forming a report, the trace is expanded to a full one by reading the summary of the called function, and then matching up the current element with one from the summary, iterating until the trace cannot be expanded any more. In the best case, this can give a quadratic saving, as a real trace gets longer the higher one goes in the call stack, and therefore the total cost of saving that trace in each summary is quadratic in the length of the trace. Quandary traces give a linear cost.
HOWEVER, these have been a source of many subtle bugs.
1. The trace expansion strategy is very arbitrary and cannot distinguish between expanded traces that are invalid (i.e., end with a call and not an originating point, such as a field access in RacerD). Plus the strategy does not explore all expansions, just the left-most one, meaning the left most may be invalid in the above sense, but another (not left-most) isn't even though it's not discovered by the expansion. This is fixable with major surgery.
2. All real traces that lead to the same endpoint are conflated -- this is to save space because there may be exponentially many such traces. That's OK, but these traces may have different locking contexts -- one may take the lock along the way, and another may not. The expansion cannot make sure that if we are reporting a trace we have recorded as taking the lock, will actually do so. This has resulted in very confusing race reports that are superficially false positives (even though they point to the existence of a real race).
3. Expansion completely breaks down in the java/buck integration when the trace goes through f -> g -> h and f,g,h are all in distinct buck targets F,G,H and F does not depend directly on H. In that case, the summary of h is simply not available when reporting/expanding in f, so the expanded trace comes out as truncated and invalid. These are filtered out, but the filtering is buggy and kills real races too.
This diff completely replaces quandary traces in RacerD with plain explicit traces.
- This will incur the quadratic space/time cost previously saved. See test plan: there is indeed a 30% increase in summary size, but there is no slowdown. In fact, on openssl there is a 10-20% perf increase.
- For each endpoint, up to a single trace is used, as before, so no exponential explosion. However, because there is no such thing as expansion, we cannot get it wrong and change the locking context of a trace.
- This diff is emulating the previous reporting format as much as possible to allow good signal from the CI. Further diffs up this stack will remove quandary-trace specific things, and simplify further the code.
- 2 is not fully addressed -- it will require pushing the `AccessSnapshot` structure inside `TraceElem`. Further diffs.

Summary:
In ObjC there are no access modifiers. The strongest alternative is to put methods in the implementation but omit them from the interface declaration.
Put exported ObjC methods in their own field in the class structure and use that in RacerD to decide whether to report on the method.

A lot of functors that take a `Make{SIL,HIL}` can take a `{SIL,HIL}`
directly instead. This makes my head hurt a bit less.
