Summary:
Getting this right will be long and complex so for now the easiest is to
underreport and only consider as invalid the addresses we know to be invalid on
both sides of a join. In fact the condition for an address to be invalid after
a join is more complex than this: it is invalid only if *all* the addresses in
its equivalence class as discovered by the join are invalid.

Summary:
Instead of the non-sensical piecewise join we had until now write
a proper one. Hopefully the comments explain what it does. Main one:
```
(* high-level idea: maintain some union-find data structure to identify locations in one heap
with locations in the other heap. Build the initial join state as follows:
- equate all locations that correspond to identical variables in both stacks, eg joining
stacks {x=1} and {x=2} adds "1=2" to the unification.
- add all addresses reachable from stack variables to the join state heap
This gives us an abstract state that is the union of both abstract states, but more states
can still be made equal. For instance, if 1 points to 3 in the first heap and 2 points to 4
in the second heap and we deduced "1 = 2" from the stacks already (as in the example just
above) then we can deduce "3 = 4". Proceed in this fashion until no more equalities are
discovered, and return the abstract state where a canonical representative has been chosen
consistently for each equivalence class (this is what the union-find data structure gives
us). *)
