Summary:
This started as an attempt to understand how to modify the frontend to
inject destructors for C++ temporaries (see next diffs).
This diff rewrites the existing logic for computing the list of
variables that should be destroyed at the end of each statement, either
because it's the end of their syntactic scope or because control flow
branches outside of their syntactic scope.
The frontend translates a function from the last instructions to the
first, but scope computation needs to be done in the other direction, so
it's done in a separate pass *before* the main translation happens. That
first pass creates a map from statements in the AST to the list of
variables that should be destroyed at the end of these statements. This
is still the case now.
Before, that map would be computed in a bit of a weird way: scopes are
naturally a stack but instead of that the structure maintained was a
flat list + a counter to know where the current scope ended in that
list.
In this diff, redo the computation maintaining a stack of scopes
instead, which is a bit cleaner. Also treat more instructions as
introducing a new scope, eg if, for, ...

Summary:
This is a simple checker that identifies inefficient uses of `keySet` iterator where (not only the key but also) the value is accessed via `get(key)`. It is more efficient to use `entrySet` iterator which already returns both key-value pairs. This optimization would get rid of many extra lookups which can be expensive.
We simply traverse the CFG starting from the loop head upwards and pick up the map that is iterated over. Then, we check in the loop nodes if there is a call to `get(...)` over this map. If, so we report.

Summary:
TOPL properties are essentially automata, which will be modeled as a set
of procedures. The code-to-analyze makes calls into these procedures,
thereby driving the automaton. In this commit, these calls do not do
anything. The point is to prepare the hook-up mechanism.

Summary:
A long-standing easter egg from infer error messages is the "object
`null` could be null and is dereferenced at line ...". I tried to fix
this but the part that generates the first "null" in the message and the
part that generates the second one are very far apart and it's hard to
see how to make the second part aware of the first in a clean way.
Instead, hack around it by detecting if the string representing the
value is literally `null` and in that case chop `could be null ` from
the error messages...

Summary:
We get messages like " object returned by `getArguments()` at line 101."
instead of " object returned by `getArguments()` could be null and is
dereferenced at line 101.". Tracking it down, it happens for
nullable-looking values, but I don't know why.
It seems that something regressed but I couldn't track it down.
So, just generate the error message in the same way as for non-nullable
objects in this case to fix the non-sensical message.

Summary:
The previous message formatting had regressed and produced non-sensical messages.
More importantly, remove template parameters from error messages to
trigger the heuristic in `InferPrint` that deduplicates errors that are
on the same line with the same error type and message. Without this we
get hundreds of reports that correspond to as many instantiations of the
same code.

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:
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.
